Ezekiel 29:5-9
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 29
5I will abandon you to the wilderness, you and all the fish of your canals; You will fall on the open field; you will not be brought together or gathered. I have given you for food to the animals of the earth and to the birds of the sky. 6Then all the inhabitants of Egypt will know that I am the Lord, Because they have been only a staff made of reed to the house of Israel.King James Version
7When they took hold of thee by thy hand, thou didst break, and rend all their shoulder: and when they leaned upon thee, thou brakest, and madest all their loins to be at a stand.
8Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I will bring a sword upon thee, and cut off man and beast out of thee.
9And the land of Egypt shall be desolate and waste; and they shall know that I am the Lord: because he hath said, The river is mine, and I have made it.

Chapter 29
5I will leave you and all your fish stranded in the wilderness to die. You will lie unburied on the open ground, for I have given you as food to the wild animals and birds. 6All the people of Egypt will know that I am the Lord, for to Israel you were just a staff made of reeds. 7When Israel leaned on you, you splintered and broke and stabbed her in the armpit. When she put her weight on you, you collapsed, and her legs gave way.English Standard Version
Chapter 29
5 And I will cast you out into the wilderness, you and all the fish of your streams; you shall fall on the open field, and not be brought together or gathered. To the beasts of the earth and to the birds of the heavens I give you as food. 6Then all the inhabitants of Egypt shall know that I am the Lord. "Because you have been a staff of reed to the house of Israel,
7when they grasped you with the hand, you broke and tore all their shoulders; and when they leaned on you, you broke and made all their loins to shake.
8Therefore thus says the Lord God: Behold, I will bring a sword upon you, and will cut off from you man and beast,
9and the land of Egypt shall be a desolation and a waste. Then they will know that I am the Lord. "Because you said, ‘The Nile is mine, and I made it,’
