Jeremiah 46:22-24

The Voice

²²     Egypt will slither away like a hissing serpent
        as her enemy marches on.
    They will come with axes,
        like woodsmen who cut down trees.
²³     I, the Eternal One, declare, “As thick as the forest of Egypt might be,
        they will chop her down,
    For they are more numerous than locusts,
        their numbers too great to count.
²⁴     The daughter of Egypt will be disgraced;
        she will be handed over to this nation from the north.”
