Yahweh's Judgment Upon Egypt
5 Then I'll fling you out into the desert, you and all those fish in your waterways. You'll fall out in the open fields; you'll never be reunited. I'm giving you to the wild beasts of the earth and to the birds of the sky, and they will dine on you! 6 "Then everyone living in Egypt will know that I am the LORD, because they have been an unreliable ally to the house of Israel. 7 When they reached out to you for support, you tore their hands and dislocated all of their shoulders. When they tried to lean on you, they couldn't control their own bowels.'
