Context Reading
22Its sound will go like the serpent,for they will march with an army,and come against her with axes, as wood cutters. 23They will cut down her forest,” says Yahweh,“though it can’t be searched;because they are more than the locusts,and are innumerable. 24The daughter of Egypt will be disappointed;she will be delivered into the hand of the people of the north.” 25Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel, says: “Behold, I will punish Amon of No, and Pharaoh, and Egypt, with her gods and her kings, even Pharaoh, and those who trust in him. 26I will deliver them into the hand of those who seek their lives, and into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of his servants. Afterwards it will be inhabited, as in the days of old,” says Yahweh.
