Ezekiel 29:3-5
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
3 Say, Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am against you, Pharaoh king of Egypt, the great monster [of sluggish and unwieldy strength] that lies in the midst of his [delta] streams, [boastfully] declaring, My river Nile is my own and I have made it for myself.
4 But I will put hooks in your jaws [O Egyptian dragon] and I will cause the fish of your rivers to stick to your scales, and I will draw you up out of the midst of your streams with all the fish of your streams which stick to your scales.
5 And I will cast you forth into the wilderness, you and all the fish of your rivers; you shall fall upon the open field and not be gathered up or buried. I have given you for food to the [wild] beasts of the earth and the birds of the heavens.

New International Version
3 Speak to him and say: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says:
“‘I am against you, Pharaoh(A) king of Egypt,
you great monster(B) lying among your streams.
You say, “The Nile(C) belongs to me;
I made it for myself.”
4 But I will put hooks(D) in your jaws
and make the fish of your streams stick to your scales.
I will pull you out from among your streams,
with all the fish sticking to your scales.(E)
5 I will leave you in the desert,
you and all the fish of your streams.
You will fall on the open field
and not be gathered(F) or picked up.
I will give you as food
to the beasts of the earth and the birds of the sky.(G)
