There is no escape for the strong.
In the north, near the River Euphrates,
they stumble and fall.
⁷ Who is this, rising like the Nile,
like rivers with surging waters?
⁸ It is Egypt that rises like the Nile,
like rivers with surging waters.
Egypt said, “I will rise.
I will cover the earth.
I will destroy cities
and those who live in them.”
