Ezekiel 30:3-5

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

³    For a day is near,
    the day of the Lord is near;
it will be a day of clouds,
    a time of doom^[a] for the nations.
⁴A sword shall come upon Egypt,
    and anguish shall be in Ethiopia,^[b]
when the slain fall in Egypt,
    and its wealth is carried away,
    and its foundations are torn down.

⁵Ethiopia,^[c] and Put, and Lud, and all Arabia, and Libya,^[d] and the people of the allied land^[e] shall fall with them by the sword.
