16 Also the children of [a]Noph and Tahapanes have [b]broken thine head.
17 Hast not thou procured this unto thyself, because thou hast forsaken the Lord thy God, when he [c]led thee by the way?
18 And what hast thou now to do in the way of [d]Egypt? to drink the water of Nilus? or what makest thou in the way of Assyria? to drink the water of the [e]River?
