13 This is the word that Jehovah spoke to Jeremiah the prophet regarding the coming of King Neb·u·chad·nezʹzar* of Babylon to strike down the land of Egypt:+
19 “Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord Jehovah says, ‘Here I am giving the land of Egypt to King Neb·u·chad·nezʹzar* of Babylon,+ and he will carry off its wealth and take much spoil and plunder from it; and it will become wages for his army.’
18 In Te·haphʹne·hes the day will grow dark when I break the yoke bars of Egypt there.+ Her arrogant power will come to an end,+ clouds will cover her, and her towns will go into captivity.+
