Isaiah 19:5-7
International Standard Version
A Rebuke to Egypt’s Ecology and Industry
5 “The water sources[a] of the Nile[b] will be dried up,
and the river[c] will become dry and parched.
6 The canals will stink,
and[d] the tributaries of Egypt will dwindle and dry up.
Reeds and rushes will wither away.[e]
7 And the bulrushes along the Nile,[f]
along the mouth of the Nile,[g] will wither away.
All the sown fields of the Nile will become parched,
and[h] they will be blown away;
there will be nothing left.[i]
