14 (A)But they shall swoop down on the shoulder of the Philistines in the west,
    and together they shall plunder (B)the people of the east.
They shall put out their hand (C)against (D)Edom and (E)Moab,
    and (F)the Ammonites shall obey them.
15 And the Lord will utterly destroy[a]
    (G)the tongue of the Sea of Egypt,
and will wave his hand over (H)the River[b]
    with his scorching breath,[c]
and strike it into seven channels,
    and he will lead people across in sandals.
16 And there will be (I)a highway from Assyria
    for the remnant that remains of his people,
(J)as there was for Israel
    when they came up from the land of Egypt.
