Isaiah 19:17-19

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹⁷ The land of Judah will terrify the Egyptians. Whenever they are reminded of Judah, they will be terrified of it because of what the Lord of Armies is planning against it.

¹⁸ When that day comes, five cities in Egypt will have people that speak the language of Canaan and swear allegiance to the Lord of Armies. One of the cities will be called Heliopolis.^[a]

¹⁹ When that day comes, an altar for the Lord will be in the middle of Egypt, and a stone marker for the Lord will be near its border.
