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, the Lord, have spoken!

13 “This is what the Sovereign Lord says:
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.
14 I will destroy southern Egypt,[c]
    set fire to Zoan,
    and bring judgment against Thebes.[d]
