Isaiah 19:5-10

New International Version - UK

⁵ The waters of the river will dry up,
    and the river bed will be parched and dry.
⁶ The canals will stink;
    the streams of Egypt will dwindle and dry up.
The reeds and rushes will wither,
⁷     also the plants along the Nile,
    at the mouth of the river.
Every sown field along the Nile
    will become parched, will blow away and be no more.
⁸ The fishermen will groan and lament,
    all who cast hooks into the Nile;
those who throw nets on the water
    will pine away.
⁹ Those who work with combed flax will despair,
    the weavers of fine linen will lose hope.
¹⁰ The workers in cloth will be dejected,
    and all the wage earners will be sick at heart.
