the spirit of the Egyptians within them will be emptied out, and I will confound their plans; they will consult the idols and the spirits of the dead and the ghosts and the familiar spirits;
4
I will deliver the Egyptians into the hand of a hard master; a fierce king will rule over them, says the Sovereign, the Lord of hosts.
5
The waters of the Nile will be dried up, and the river will be parched and dry;
6
its canals will become foul, and the branches of Egypt's Nile will diminish and dry up, reeds and rushes will rot away.
