13 The jealousy of Ephraim will cease
    and the hostility of Judah will end.
Ephraim will not be jealous of Judah,
    nor will Judah have any hostility toward Ephraim.
14 Together they will swoop down
    on the foothills of the Philistines to the west
    and plunder the people of the east.
Edom and Moab will become subject to their rule,
    and the Ammonites will obey them.[a]
15 The Lord will dry up a pathway
    through the Sea of Egypt,
and he will wave his hand over the Euphrates
    in his fierce anger,
splitting it into seven streams
    so that it can be crossed on foot.
