¹⁶ This is the lamentation, and they shall lament therewith: the daughters of the nations shall lament therewith: for Egypt, and for the multitude thereof they shall lament therewith, saith the Lord God.

¹⁷ And it came to pass in the twelfth year, in the fifteenth day of the month that the word of the Lord came to me, saying:

¹⁸ Son of man, sing a mournful song for the multitude of Egypt: and cast her down, both her, and the daughters of the mighty nations to the lowest part of the earth, with them that go down into the pit.
