Art thou better than the great city of Alexandria: that lay in the waters, and had the waters round about it? Which was strongly fenced and walled with the sea?
Moreover, sayeth the LORD of Hosts the God of Israel: Behold I will visit that restless people of Alexandria, Pharaoh and Egypt; yea, both their gods and their kings; even Pharaoh, and all them that put their trust in him.
As for Pathros, I will make it desolate, and kindle a fire in Zoan. Alexandria will I punish and pour my wrathful indignation upon Sin which is the strength of Egypt. All the substance of Alexandria will I destroy, and kindle a fire in Egypt. Sin shall be in great heaviness, Alexandria shall be rooted out, and Noph shall have daily sorrow.
