Ezekiel 29:5-7

New Catholic Bible

⁵ I will fling you into the desert,
    you and all the fish of your tributaries.
You will fall upon the open field
    and not be taken up or buried.
I will give you as food
    to the animals of the earth
    and the birds of the air.
⁶ Then all the inhabitants of Egypt shall know
    that I am the Lord.
The support they gave the Israelites
    was no greater than a staff of reed.
⁷ When they grasped you,
    you splintered in their hands.
Whenever they leaned on you, you broke,
    causing all their limbs to give way.
