11 He and his armies—the most ruthless of all—
    will be sent to demolish the land.
They will make war against Egypt
    until slaughtered Egyptians cover the ground.
12 I will dry up the Nile River
    and sell the land to wicked men.
I will destroy the land of Egypt and everything in it
    by the hands of foreigners.

I will smash the idols[a] of Egypt
    and the images at Memphis.[b]
There will be no rulers left in Egypt;
    terror will sweep the land.
