"The water sources of the Nile will be dried up, and the river will become dry and parched.

The canals will stink, and the tributaries of Egypt will dwindle and dry up. Reeds and rushes will wither away.

"The earth dries up and withers; the world languishes and fades away; heaven fades away, along with the earth.

The new wine evaporates; the vine and the oil dry up; all the merrymakers groan.

I myself dug wells and drank foreign waters; with the soles of my feet I dried up all the streams of Egypt."

I'll devastate the mountains and hills, and dry up all their vegetation; I'll turn rivers into islands, and dry up the ponds.

who says to the watery deep, "Be dry I will dry up your rivers;"

Why is it that when I came, no one was there? Why was there no answer when I called? Was my arm too short to redeem you? Do I lack the strength to rescue you? Look! By my mere rebuke I dry up the sea, I turn rivers into a desert. Their fish stink for lack of water and die of thirst.

Was it not you who dried up the sea, the waters of the great deep, who made a road in the depths of the sea so that the redeemed could cross over?"
