The princes of Zoan have become fools. The princes of MEMPHIS are deceived. They have caused Egypt to go astray, who are the cornerstone of her tribes.

The children also of MEMPHIS and Tahpanhes have broken the crown of your head.

14. "Declare in Egypt,publish in Migdol,and publish in MEMPHIS and in Tahpanhes:say, 'Stand up, and prepare;for the sword has devoured around you.'

15. Why are your strong ones swept away?They didn't stand, because the LORD pushed them.

16. He made many to stumble.Yes, they fell on one another.They said, 'Arise, and let us go again to our own people,and to the land of our birth,from the oppressing sword.'

17. They cried there, 'Pharaoh king of Egypt is but a noise;he has let the appointed time pass by.'

18. "As I live," says the King,whose name is the LORD of Hosts,"surely like Tabor among the mountains,and like Carmel by the sea,so he will come.

19. You daughter who dwells in Egypt,furnish yourself to go into captivity;for MEMPHIS will become a desolation,and will be burned up,without inhabitant.

I will set a fire in EgyptSin will be in great anguish.No will be broken up.MEMPHIS will have adversaries in the daytime.
