2 Kings 19:24-26
New International Reader's Version
24 I’ve dug wells in strange lands.
I’ve drunk the water from them.
I’ve walked through all of Egypt’s streams.
I’ve dried up every one of them.”
25 “ ‘But I, the Lord, say, “Haven’t you heard what I have done?
Long ago I arranged for you to do all of that.
In days of old I planned it.
Now I have made it happen.
You have turned cities with high walls
into piles of stone.
26 Their people do not have any power left.
They are troubled and put to shame.
They are like plants in the field.
They are like new green plants.
They are like grass that grows on a roof.
It dries up before it is completely grown.
2 Kings 19:24-26
New International Version
24 I have dug wells in foreign lands
and drunk the water there.
With the soles of my feet
I have dried up all the streams of Egypt.”
25 “‘Have you not heard?(A)
Long ago I ordained it.
In days of old I planned(B) it;
now I have brought it to pass,
that you have turned fortified cities
into piles of stone.(C)
26 Their people, drained of power,(D)
are dismayed(E) and put to shame.
They are like plants in the field,
like tender green shoots,(F)
like grass sprouting on the roof,
scorched(G) before it grows up.
