10 Then say to them, ‘This is what Jehovah of armies, the God of Israel, says: “Here I am sending for Neb·u·chad·nezʹzar* the king of Babylon, my servant,+ and I will place his throne right above these stones that I have hidden, and he will extend his royal tent over them.+ 11 And he will come in and strike the land of Egypt.+ Whoever is meant for deadly plague will be for deadly plague, and whoever is meant for captivity will be for captivity, and whoever is meant for the sword will be for the sword.+

25 “Jehovah of armies, the God of Israel, says: ‘Now I am turning my attention to Aʹmon+ from No,*+ to Pharʹaoh, to Egypt, to her gods,+ and to her kings—yes, to Pharʹaoh and all those trusting in him.’+

26 “‘And I will hand them over to those seeking to take their life,* to King Neb·u·chad·nezʹzar* of Babylon+ and his servants. But afterward she will be inhabited as in times past,’ declares Jehovah.+

24 I will strengthen the arms* of the king of Babylon+ and put my sword into his hand,+ and I will break the arms of Pharʹaoh, and he will groan loudly like a dying man before him.*
