13 Ephraim’s jealousy will vanish,
    and Judah’s enemies[a] will be destroyed;
Ephraim will not be jealous of Judah,
    nor Judah hostile toward Ephraim.(A)
14 They will swoop down on the slopes of Philistia(B) to the west;
    together they will plunder the people to the east.(C)
They will subdue Edom(D) and Moab,(E)
    and the Ammonites(F) will be subject to them.(G)
15 The Lord will dry up(H)
    the gulf of the Egyptian sea;
with a scorching wind(I) he will sweep his hand(J)
    over the Euphrates River.(K)
He will break it up into seven streams
    so that anyone can cross over in sandals.(L)

  1. Isaiah 11:13 Or hostility

13 The envy also of Ephraim shall depart, and the adversaries of Judah shall be cut off: Ephraim shall not envy Judah, and Judah shall not vex Ephraim.

14 But they shall fly upon the shoulders of the Philistines toward the west; they shall spoil them of the east together: they shall lay their hand upon Edom and Moab; and the children of Ammon shall obey them.

15 And the Lord shall utterly destroy the tongue of the Egyptian sea; and with his mighty wind shall he shake his hand over the river, and shall smite it in the seven streams, and make men go over dryshod.
