Ezekiel 29:14-16
1599 Geneva Bible
14 And I will bring again the captivity of Egypt, and will cause them to return into the land of Pathros, into the land of their habitation, and they shall be there a [a]small kingdom.
15 It shall be the smallest of the kingdoms, neither shall it exalt itself anymore above the nations: for I will diminish them, that they shall no more rule the nations.
16 And it shall be no more the confidence of the house of Israel, to bring their [b]iniquity to remembrance by looking after them, so shall they know that I am the Lord God.

New International Version
14 I will bring them back from captivity and return them to Upper Egypt,(A) the land of their ancestry. There they will be a lowly(B) kingdom.(C) 15 It will be the lowliest of kingdoms and will never again exalt itself above the other nations.(D) I will make it so weak that it will never again rule over the nations. 16 Egypt will no longer be a source of confidence(E) for the people of Israel but will be a reminder(F) of their sin in turning to her for help.(G) Then they will know that I am the Sovereign Lord.(H)’”
