    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.
A 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.

Ethiopia,[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.
