And I will go throughout the land of Egypt in that night, and I will smite every firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast, and on all the gods of Egypt will I execute vengeance: I am the Lord.

The vision of Egypt. Behold, the Lord sits on a swift cloud, and shall come to Egypt. And the idols of Egypt shall be moved at His presence, and their hearts shall faint within them.

And the spirit of the Egyptians shall be troubled within them; and I will frustrate their counsel; and they shall inquire of their gods and their images, and them that speak out of the earth, and them that have in them a divining spirit.

And the Egyptians shall drink the water that is by the sea, but the river shall fail, and be dried up.

And all the green herbs round about the river, and everything sown by the side of the river, shall be blasted with the wind and dried up.

And shame shall come upon them that work fine flax, and them that make fine linen.

And the princes of Tanis shall be fools; [as for] the king's wise counselors, their counsel shall be turned into folly; how will you say to the king, we are sons of wise men, sons of ancient kings?

The princes of Tanis have failed, and the princes of Memphis are lifted up [with pride], and they shall cause Egypt to wander by tribes.

And there shall be no work to the Egyptians, which shall make head or tail, or beginning or end.

And he shall kindle a fire in the houses of their gods, and shall burn them, and shall carry them away captives; and shall search the land of Egypt, as a shepherd searches his garment; and he shall go forth in peace.

And he shall break to pieces the pillars of Heliopolis that are in On, and shall burn their houses with fire.

Behold, I [will] avenge Ammon her son upon Pharaoh, and upon them that trust in him.

The Lord shall appear against them, and shall utterly destroy all the gods of the nations of the earth; and they shall worship Him everyone from his place, [even] all the islands of the nations.

And it shall come to pass in that day, says the Lord of hosts, that I will utterly destroy the names of the idols from off the land, and there shall be no longer any remembrance of them: and I will cut off the false prophets and the evil spirit from the land.

The princes of Tanis have failed, and the princes of Memphis are lifted up [with pride], and they shall cause Egypt to wander by tribes.

Also the children of Memphis and Tahpanhes have known you, and mocked you.

The word that came to Jeremiah for all the Jews dwelling in the land of Egypt, and for those settled in Migdol and in Tahpanhes, and in the land of Pathura, saying,

Proclaim [it] at Migdol, and declare [it] at Memphis. Say, Stand up, and prepare; for the sword has devoured your yew tree.

Therefore, behold, they go forth from the trouble of Egypt, and Memphis shall receive them, and Machmas shall bury them. [As for] their silver, destruction shall inherit it; thorns [shall be] in their tents.

and I will turn the captivity of the Egyptians, and will cause them to dwell in the land of Pathros, in the land from where they were taken;

and it shall be a lowly kingdom beyond all [other] kingdoms; it shall not anymore be exalted over the nations; and I will make them few in number, that they may not be great among the nations.

And they shall pass through a narrow sea, they shall smite the waves in the sea, and all the deep places of the rivers shall be dried up: and all the pride of the Assyrians shall be taken away, and the scepter of Egypt shall be removed.

But in that day the Egyptians shall be as women, in fear and in trembling because of the hand of the Lord of hosts, which He shall bring upon them.

Why do they fear, and turn back? Even because their mighty men shall be slain: They have utterly fled, and being hemmed in they have not rallied, says the Lord.
