Yahweh's Judgment Upon Egypt
5 And I will stretch thee out towards the desert thee and all the fish of thy rivers, Off the face of the field, shalt thou lie Thou shalt not be carried away. nor shalt thou be gathered, To the wild beast of the earth and to the bird of the heavens, have I given thee for food. 6 So shall all the inhabitants of Egypt know that I, am Yahweh, Because they were a staff of reed to the house of Israel: 7 Whensoever they took held of thee by the hand, thou didst run through, and tear open for them every hand, - And whensoever they leaned upon thee, thou didst break, and caused all their loins to halt.
