2 And I will set the Egyptians to fight against the Egyptians: and they shall fight brother against brother, and friend against friend, city against city, kingdom against kingdom.

And I will provoke Egypt against Egypt and they will fight each against brother his and each against neighbor his city against city kingdom against kingdom.

3 And the spirit of Egypt shall be broken in the bowels thereof, and I will cast down their counsel: and they shall consult their idols, and their diviners, and their wizards, and soothsayers.

And it will be disturbed [the] spirit of Egypt within it and plan its I will confuse and they will consult the idols and the mutterer and the necromancers and the soothsayers.

And they will stink [the] rivers they will be low and they will become dry [the] canals of Egypt reed[s] and rush[es] they will wither.

7 The channel of the river shall be laid bare from its fountain, and every thing sown by the water shall be dried up, it shall wither away, and shall be no more.
