And the waters will be dried up from the sea,
    and the river will be parched and dry.
And the rivers will become foul-smelling;
    the branches of the Nile of Egypt will become little and dry up;
    reed and rush will wither.
Bare places by the Nile will be dried up,
    by the edge of the Nile and all the sown land of the Nile;
    it will be driven about, and it will be no more.[a]

And the waters shall fail from the sea, and the river shall be wasted and dried up.

And they shall turn the rivers far away; and the brooks of defence shall be emptied and dried up: the reeds and flags shall wither.

The paper reeds by the brooks, by the mouth of the brooks, and every thing sown by the brooks, shall wither, be driven away, and be no more.
