Isaiah 19:5-7

Modern English Version

⁵ The waters from the sea shall dry up,
    and the river shall be parched and dry.
⁶ The canals shall emit a stench;
    the streams of Egypt shall diminish and dry up;
the reeds and rushes shall wither.
⁷     The papyrus reeds by the brooks,
    by the mouth of the brooks,
and everything sown by the brooks,
    shall wither, be driven away, and be no more.
