Isaiah 19:7-9
1599 Geneva Bible
7 The grass in the river, and at the [a]head of the rivers, and all that groweth by the river shall wither, and be driven away, and be no more.
8 The fishers also shall [b]mourn, and all they that cast angle into the river, shall lament, and they that spread their net upon the waters, shall be weakened.
9 Moreover, they that work in flax of divers sorts, shall be confounded, and they that weave nets.

7 also the plants(A) along the Nile,
at the mouth of the river.
Every sown field(B) along the Nile
will become parched, will blow away and be no more.(C)
8 The fishermen(D) will groan and lament,
all who cast hooks(E) into the Nile;
those who throw nets on the water
will pine away.
9 Those who work with combed flax(F) will despair,
the weavers of fine linen(G) will lose hope.
