1This is the burden against Egypt: Behold, the LORD rides on a swift cloud; He is coming to Egypt. The idols of Egypt will tremble before Him, and the hearts of the Egyptians will melt within them.
“the burden of Egypt, behold the Lord rideth upon a swift cloud and shall come into Egypt and the idols of Egypt shall be moved at his presence and the heart of Egypt shall melt in the midst of it.”
“the burden of Egypt behold the Lord right of the upon a swift cloud and shall come into Egypt. And the idols of Egypt shall be moved at his presence and in the heart of Egypt shall melt in the midst of it.”
2"So I will incite Egyptian against Egyptian; brother will fight against brother, neighbor against neighbor, city against city, and kingdom against kingdom.
“I will set Egyptians against Egyptians. Everyone will fight against his brother, and everyone against his neighbor. City against city, kingdom against kingdom.”
3Then the spirit of the Egyptians will be emptied out from among them, and I will frustrate their plans, so that they will resort to idols and spirits of the dead, to mediums and spiritists.
“The spirit of Egypt will fail in its midst. I will destroy their council, and they will consult the idols and the charmers, the mediums and the sorcerers,”
“and the spirit of Egypt's up fail in the midst thereof and I will destroy the council thereof. And they shall seek to the idols and to the charmers and to them that have familiar spirits into the wizards.”
4I will deliver the Egyptians into the hands of harsh masters, and a fierce king will rule over them," declares the Lord GOD of Hosts.

“and the Egyptians I will give into the hand of a cruel master. A fierce king will rule over them, says the Lord. The Lord of hosts.”
“and the Egyptians will I give over into the hand of a cruel lord and a king of fierce countenance shall rule over them. Thus saith the lord the lord of hosts.”
5The waters of the Nile will dry up, and the riverbed will be parched and empty.
“The waters will fail from the sea, and the river will be wasted and dried up.”
“The water shall fail from the sea and the river shall be wasted and dried up”
6The canals will stink; the streams of Egypt will trickle and dry up; the reeds and rushes will wither.
“The rivers will turn foul, and the brooks of defense will be emptied and dried up. The reeds and the rushes will wither.”
“They shall turn the river far away, and the brooks of defense shall be emptied, and dried up the reeds, and flags shall wither.”
“And they shall damn the river far away. And the brooks of defense shall be emptied and dried up in the reeds and the flags shall wither”
7The bulrushes by the Nile, by the mouth of the river, and all the fields sown along the Nile, will wither, blow away, and be no more.
“The papyrus seeds reeds by the river, by the mouth of the river. Everything sown by the river will wither, be driven away, and be no more.”
“the paper reeds by the brooks, by the mouth of the brooks, and everything sewn by the brooks shall wither and be driven away, and be no more.”
8Then the fishermen will mourn, all who cast a hook into the Nile will lament, and those who spread nets on the waters will pine away.
“The fishers also shall mourn and all they that cast their hook into the brook shall lament and they that spread their nets upon the water shall languish.”
“the fishers also shall mourn and all they that cast angle into the brooks shall lament and they shall spread nets upon the waters they which shall languish.”
“The fishers also shall moor, and all they that cast angle into the brook shall lament, and they that spread nets upon the waters shall languish.”
“The fishermen also will mourn. Those who will lament will cast hooks into the river, and they will languish who spread nets on the waters.”
9The workers in flax will be dismayed, and the weavers of fine linen will turn pale.
“Moreover, those who work in fine flax and those who weave fine fabric will be ashamed,”
“Moreover they that work in fine flax and they that have weaved the network shall be confounded”
10The workers in cloth will be dejected, and all the hired workers will be sick at heart.
“and its foundations will be broken. All who make wages will be troubled of soul.”
“and they shall be broken in the purposes thereof. All that make the schluses and ponds for fish.”
11The princes of Zoan are mere fools; Pharaoh's wise counselors give senseless advice. How can you say to Pharaoh, "I am one of the wise, a son of eastern kings"?
“Surely the princes of Zohan are foolish. Pharaoh's wise counselors give foolish counsel. How do you say to Pharaoh, I am the son of the wise, the son of the ancient kings.”
12Where are your wise men now? Let them tell you and reveal what the LORD of Hosts has planned against Egypt.
“where are they? Where are your wise men? Let them tell you now and let them know what the Lord of hosts has purposed against Egypt.”
“Where are they? Where are the wise men? Let them tell thee now and let them know what the Lord of hosts has purposed upon Egypt.”
