30 Rebuke the beast among the reeds,

the herd of bulls among the calves of the nations.

Humbled, may the beast bring bars of silver.

Scatter the nations who delight in war.

31 Envoys will come from Egypt;

Cush will submit herself to God.

30 Rebuke the company of spearmen,

The multitude of the bulls, with the calves of the people,

Till every one submit himself with pieces of silver:

Scatter thou the people that delight in war.

31 Princes shall come out of Egypt;

Ethiopia shall soon stretch out her hands unto God.

30 Rebuke these enemy nations—

these wild animals lurking in the reeds,

this herd of bulls among the weaker calves.

Make them bring bars of silver in humble tribute.

Scatter the nations that delight in war.

31 Let Egypt come with gifts of precious metals;

let Ethiopia bring tribute to God.

30 Rebuke the beasts of the reeds,

The herd of bulls with the calves of the peoples,

Till everyone submits himself with pieces of silver.

Scatter the peoples who delight in war.

31 Envoys will come out of Egypt;

Ethiopia will quickly stretch out her hands to God.

30 Punish Egypt, the beast in the tall grass along the river.

Punish the leaders of nations, those bulls among the cows.

Defeated, they will bring you their silver.

Scatter those nations that love war.

31 Messengers will come from Egypt;

the people of Cush will pray to God.

30 Rebuke the wild beast of the reeds,

The multitude of the bulls, with the calves of the peoples,

Trampling under foot the pieces of silver:

He hath scattered the peoples that delight in war.

31 Princes shall come out of Egypt;

Ethiopia shall haste to stretch out her hands unto God.

30 Rebuke the beast of the reeds, the assembly of the strong, with the calves of the peoples: every one submitteth himself with pieces of silver. Scatter the peoples that delight in war. 31 Great ones shall come out of Egypt; Ethiopia shall quickly stretch out her hands unto God.

30 Threaten the beast who is among the cattails, 

the herd of bulls with the calves of the nations, 

until it humbles itself with pieces of silver. 

Scatter the people who find joy in war. 

31 Ambassadors will come from Egypt. 

Sudan will stretch out its hands to God ⸤in prayer⸥.

the herd of bulls with the calves of the peoples.

Trample underfoot those with bars of silver.

Scatter the peoples who take pleasure in war.

31 Ambassadors will come from Egypt;

Cush will stretch out its hands to God.

30 Rebuke the wild animals that live among the reeds,

the herd of bulls with the calves of the peoples.

The people of Cush will be quick to bring gifts to you.

Ethiopia will quickly stretch out her hands to God.
