²⁰ It will be a sign and witness to the Lord of Armies in the land of Egypt. When they cry out to the Lord because of their oppressors, he will send them a savior and leader, and he will rescue them.^{(A) 21} The Lord will make himself known to Egypt, and Egypt will know the Lord on that day. They will offer sacrifices and offerings;^(B) they will make vows to the Lord and fulfill them. ²² The Lord will strike Egypt, striking and healing. Then they will turn to the Lord, and he will be receptive to their prayers and heal them.
