4
Then will I leave thee upon the land, I will cast thee forth upon the openfield, and will cause all the fowls of the heaven to remain upon thee, and I will fill the beasts of the whole earth with thee.
5
And I will lay thy flesh upon the mountains, and fill the valleys with thy height.
6
I will also water with thy blood the land wherein thou swimmest, even to the mountains; and the rivers shall be full of thee.
7
And when I shall put thee out, I will cover the heaven, and make the stars thereof dark; I will cover the sun with a cloud, and the moon shall not give her light.
8
All the bright[a]lights of heaven will I make dark over thee, and setdarkness upon thy land,saith the LordGOD.
9
I will also vex[b] the hearts of manypeople, when I shall bring thy destruction among the nations, into the countries which thou hast not known.
10
Yea, I will make manypeopleamazed at thee, and their kings shall be horriblyafraid for thee, when I shall brandish my sword before them; and they shall tremble at every moment, every man for his own life, in the day of thy fall.
11
For thus saith the LordGOD; The sword of the king of Babylon shall come upon thee.
12
By the swords of the mighty will I cause thy multitude to fall, the terrible of the nations, all of them: and they shall spoil the pomp of Egypt, and all the multitude thereof shall be destroyed.
13
I will destroy also all the beasts thereof from beside the greatwaters; neither shall the foot of mantrouble them any more, nor the hoofs of beaststrouble them.
14
Then will I make their watersdeep, and cause their rivers to run like oil,saith the LordGOD.
