Ezekiel 30:4-9

4A sword will come upon Egypt, And anguish will be in 1Ethiopia; When the slain fall in Egypt, They 2take away her 3wealth, And her foundations are torn down. 5 4Ethiopia, Put, Lud, all 5 6Arabia, 7Libya and the 8people of the land 9that is in league will fall with them by the sword.”

6‘Thus says the Lord, “Indeed, those who support 10Egypt will fall And the pride of her power will come down; From Migdol to Syene They will fall within her by the sword,” Declares the Lord God.7“They will be desolate In the 11midst of the desolated lands; And her cities will be In the midst of the devastated cities.8And they will 12know that I am the Lord, When I set a 13fire in Egypt And all her helpers are broken. 9On that day 14messengers will go forth from Me in ships to frighten 15secure 16Ethiopia; and 17anguish will be on them as on the day of Egypt; for behold, it comes!”
