Isaiah 19:5-7
1599 Geneva Bible
5 Then the waters of the sea shall [a]fail, and the river shall be dried up, and wasted.
6 And the [b]rivers shall go far away: the rivers of defense shall be emptied and dried up: the reeds and flags shall be cut down.
7 The grass in the river, and at the [c]head of the rivers, and all that groweth by the river shall wither, and be driven away, and be no more.
