Isaiah 19:8-10
International Standard Version
8 The fishermen will groan,
and all who cast hooks into the Nile will lament;
those who spread nets upon the water
will become weaker and weaker.
9 The workers[a] in combed flax
and the weavers of white linen
will be in despair.
10 Egypt’s[b] workers in cloth[c] will be crushed,
and all who work for wages will be sick at heart.”
