Yes, a day approaches,
    a day of the Lord approaches:
A day of dark cloud,
    a time appointed for the nations.(A)
A sword will come against Egypt,
    there will be anguish in Ethiopia,
When the slain fall in Egypt
    when its hordes are seized,
    its foundations razed.(B)
Ethiopia, Put, and Lud,
    all the mixed rabble[a] and Kub,
and the people of allied lands
    shall fall by the sword with them.
