Isaiah 19:6-8

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

⁶ its canals will become foul,
    and the branches of Egypt’s Nile will diminish and dry up;
    reeds and rushes will rot away.
⁷ There will be bare places by the Nile,
    on the brink of the Nile;
and all that is sown by the Nile will dry up,
    be driven away, and be no more.
⁸ Those who fish will mourn;
    all who cast hooks in the Nile will lament,
    and those who spread nets on the water will languish.
