Jeremiah 46:20-26
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 46
20
Egypt is a pretty heifer,
But
a horsefly is coming from the north—it is coming!
21
Also her mercenaries in her midst
Are like fattened calves,
For they too have turned away
and
have fled together;
They did not stand
their ground.
For the day of their disaster has come upon them,
The time of their punishment.
22
Its sound moves along like a serpent;
For they move on like an army
And come to her as woodcutters with axes.
23
They have cut down her forest,' declares the
Lord
;
'Certainly it will no
longer
be found,
Even though they are more numerous than locusts
And are without number.
24
The daughter of Egypt has been put to shame,
Turned over to the power of the people of the north.'
25
The
Lord
of armies, the God of Israel says: 'Behold, I am going to punish Amon of Thebes, and Pharaoh, and Egypt along with her gods and her kings, indeed, Pharaoh and those who trust in him.
26
I shall hand them over to those who are seeking their lives, that is, to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and to his officers. Afterward, however, it will be inhabited as in the days of old,' declares the
Lord
.
King James Version
Chapter 46
20
Egypt is like a very fair heifer, but destruction cometh; it cometh out of the north.
21
Also her hired men are in the midst of her like fatted bullocks; for they also are turned back, and are fled away together: they did not stand, because the day of their calamity was come upon them, and the time of their visitation.
22
The voice thereof shall go like a serpent; for they shall march with an army, and come against her with axes, as hewers of wood.
23
They shall cut down her forest, saith the
Lord
, though it cannot be searched; because they are more than the grasshoppers, and are innumerable.
24
The daughter of Egypt shall be confounded; she shall be delivered into the hand of the people of the north.
25
The
Lord
of hosts, the God of Israel, saith; Behold, I will punish the multitude of No, and Pharaoh, and Egypt, with their gods, and their kings; even Pharaoh, and all them that trust in him:
26
And I will deliver them into the hand of those that seek their lives, and into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of his servants: and afterward it shall be inhabited, as in the days of old, saith the
Lord
.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 46
20
Egypt is a beautiful young cow,
but a horsefly from the north is coming against her.
21
Even her mercenaries among her
are like stall-fed calves.
They too will turn back;
together they will flee;
they will not take their stand,
for the day of their calamity is coming on them,
the time of their punishment.
22
Egypt will hiss like a slithering snake,
for the enemy will come with an army;
with axes they will come against her
like those who cut trees.
23
They will cut down her forest— this is the
Lord
’s declaration— though it is dense,
for they are more numerous than locusts;
they cannot be counted.
24
Daughter Egypt will be put to shame,
handed over to a northern people.
25
The
Lord
of Armies, the God of Israel, says, "I am about to punish Amon, god of Thebes, along with Pharaoh, Egypt, her gods, and her kings—Pharaoh and those trusting in him.
26
I will hand them over to those who intend to take their lives —to King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon and his officers. But after this, Egypt will be inhabited again as in ancient times." This is the
Lord
’s declaration.
New Living Translation
Chapter 46
20
Egypt is as sleek as a beautiful heifer,
but a horsefly from the north is on its way!
21
Egypt’s mercenaries have become like fattened calves.
They, too, will turn and run,
for it is a day of great disaster for Egypt,
a time of great punishment.
22
Egypt flees, silent as a serpent gliding away.
The invading army marches in;
they come against her with axes like woodsmen.
23
They will cut down her people like trees,' says the
Lord
,
'for they are more numerous than locusts.
24
Egypt will be humiliated;
she will be handed over to people from the north.'
25
The
Lord
of Heaven’s Armies, the God of Israel, says: 'I will punish Amon, the god of Thebes, and all the other gods of Egypt. I will punish its rulers and Pharaoh, too, and all who trust in him.
26
I will hand them over to those who want them killed — to King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon and his army. But afterward the land will recover from the ravages of war. I, the
Lord
, have spoken!

Chapter 46
20
"A beautiful heifer is Egypt,
but a biting fly from the north has come upon her.
21
Even her hired soldiers in her midst
are like fattened calves;
yes, they have turned and fled together;
they did not stand,
for the day of their calamity has come upon them,
the time of their punishment.
22
"She makes a sound like a serpent gliding away;
for her enemies march in force
and come against her with axes
like those who fell trees.
23
They shall cut down her forest, declares the
Lord
,
though it is impenetrable,
because they are more numerous than locusts;
they are without number.
24
The daughter of Egypt shall be put to shame;
she shall be delivered into the hand of a people from the north."
25
The
Lord
of hosts, the God of Israel, said: "Behold, I am bringing punishment upon Amon of Thebes, and Pharaoh and Egypt and her gods and her kings, upon Pharaoh and those who trust in him.
26
I will deliver them into the hand of those who seek their life, into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and his officers. Afterward Egypt shall be inhabited as in the days of old, declares the
Lord
.
New International Version
Chapter 46
20
"Egypt is a beautiful heifer,
but a gadfly is coming
against her from the north.
21
The mercenaries in her ranks
are like fattened calves.
They too will turn and flee together,
they will not stand their ground,
for the day of disaster is coming upon them,
the time for them to be punished.
22
Egypt will hiss like a fleeing serpent
as the enemy advances in force;
they will come against her with axes,
like men who cut down trees.
23
They will chop down her forest,"
declares the
Lord
,
"dense though it be.
They are more numerous than locusts,
they cannot be counted.
24
Daughter Egypt will be put to shame,
given into the hands of the people of the north."
25
The
Lord
Almighty, the God of Israel, says: "I am about to bring punishment on Amon god of Thebes, on Pharaoh, on Egypt and her gods and her kings, and on those who rely on Pharaoh.
26
I will give them into the hands of those who want to kill them—Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and his officers. Later, however, Egypt will be inhabited as in times past," declares the
Lord
.

20
“Egypt
is
a very pretty heifer,
But
destruction comes, it comes from the north.
21
Also her mercenaries are in her midst like fat bulls,
For they also are turned back,
They have fled away together.
They did not stand,
For the day of their calamity had come upon them,
The time of their punishment.
22
Her noise shall go like a serpent,
For they shall march with an army
And come against her with axes,
Like those who chop wood.
23
“They shall cut down her forest,” says the
Lord
,
“Though it cannot be searched,
Because they
are
innumerable,
And more numerous than grasshoppers.
24
The daughter of Egypt shall be ashamed;
She shall be delivered into the hand
Of the people of the north.”
25
The
Lord
of hosts, the God of Israel, says: “Behold, I will bring punishment on Amon of No, and Pharaoh and Egypt, with their gods and their kings—Pharaoh and those who trust in him.
