16 “I will set a fire in Egypt;
[a]Sin will writhe in anguish,
[b]Thebes will be breached
And [c]Memphis will have [d]distresses daily.
17 “The young men of [e](A)On and of Pi-beseth
Will fall by the sword,
And [f]the women will go into captivity.
18 “In (B)Tehaphnehes the day will [g]be (C)dark
When I (D)break there the yoke bars of Egypt.
Then the pride of her power will cease in her;
A cloud will cover her,
And her daughters will go into captivity.
