11 And when he shall come, he shall smite the land of Egypt: [a]such as are appointed for death, to death, and such as are for captivity, to captivity, and such as are for the sword, to the sword.

12 And I will kindle a fire in the houses of the gods of Egypt, and he shall burn them and carry them away captives, and he shall array himself with the land of Egypt, as a [b]shepherd putteth on his garment, and shall depart from thence in peace.

13 He shall break also the images of [c]Beth Shemesh, that is in the land of Egypt, and the houses of the gods of the Egyptians shall he burn with fire.
