“For the day is near,
Even (A)the day of the Lord is near;
It will be a day of (B)clouds,
A time of doom for the nations.
“A sword will come upon Egypt,
And anguish will be in [a]Ethiopia;
When the slain fall in Egypt,
They (C)take away her [b]wealth,
And her foundations are torn down.

[c]Ethiopia, Put, Lud, all [d](D)Arabia, [e]Libya and the [f]people of the land [g]that is in league will fall with them by the sword.”
