²⁶ The Lord Almighty will lash^(A) them with a whip,
    as when he struck down Midian^(B) at the rock of Oreb;
and he will raise his staff^(C) over the waters,^(D)
    as he did in Egypt.

¹⁵ The Lord will dry up^(A)
    the gulf of the Egyptian sea;
with a scorching wind^(B) he will sweep his hand^(C)
    over the Euphrates River.^(D)
He will break it up into seven streams
    so that anyone can cross over in sandals.^(E)

⁹ Though I scatter them among the peoples,
    yet in distant lands they will remember me.^(A)
They and their children will survive,
    and they will return.
¹⁰ I will bring them back from Egypt
    and gather them from Assyria.^(B)
I will bring them to Gilead^(C) and Lebanon,
    and there will not be room^(D) enough for them.
¹¹ They will pass through the sea of trouble;
    the surging sea will be subdued
    and all the depths of the Nile will dry up.^(E)
Assyria’s pride^(F) will be brought down
    and Egypt’s scepter^(G) will pass away.^(H)
