9} The ^(B)land of Egypt will become a desolation and waste. Then they will know that I am the Lord.Because ^(a)you ^(C)said, ‘The Nile is mine, and I have made it,’ ^{Tools
10} therefore, behold, I am ^(D)against you and against your ^(b)rivers, and I will make the land of Egypt an utter waste and desolation, from Migdol to Syene and even to the border of ^(c)Ethiopia. ^{Tools
11} A man’s foot will ^(E)not pass through it, and the foot of a beast will not pass through it, and it will not be inhabited for forty years. ^{Tools
12} So I will make the land of Egypt a desolation in the ^(F)midst of desolated lands. And her cities, in the midst of cities that are laid waste, will be desolate forty years; and I will ^(G)scatter the Egyptians among the nations and disperse them among the lands.”

^{Tools
13} ‘For thus says the Lord God, “At the end of forty years I will ^(H)gather the Egyptians from the peoples ^(d)among whom they were scattered. ^{Tools
14} I will turn the fortunes of Egypt and make them return to the land of ^(I)Pathros, to the land of their origin, and there they will be a lowly kingdom.
