A Lament Over The Nation And Land Of Egypt

17 The young men of On and Pi-beseth
will fall by the sword,
and those cities will go into captivity.
18 The day will be dark in Tehaphnehes,
when I break the yoke of Egypt there
and its proud strength
comes to an end in the city.
A cloud will cover Tehaphnehes,
and its villages will go into captivity.
19 So I will execute judgments against Egypt,
and they will know that I am Yahweh.
