Isaiah 19:5-9
51The waters from the sea will dry up, And the river will be parched and dry.6The 23canals will emit a stench, The 45streams of Egypt will thin out and dry up; 6The reeds and rushes will rot away.7The bulrushes by the 7Nile, by the 8edge of the Nile And all the sown fields by the Nile Will become dry, be driven away, and be no more.8And the 9fishermen will lament, And all those who cast a 10line into the Nile will mourn, And those who spread nets on the waters will 11pine away.9Moreover, the manufacturers of linen made from combed flax And the weavers of white 12cloth will be 13utterly dejected.
