14 I will make (A)Pathros desolate,
Set a fire in (B)Zoan
And execute judgments on [a](C)Thebes.
15 I will pour out My wrath on [b]Sin,
The stronghold of Egypt;
I will also eliminate the hordes of [c]Thebes.
16 I will set a fire in Egypt;
[d]Sin will writhe in anguish,
[e]Thebes will be breached
And [f]Memphis will have [g]distresses daily.
