6 The canals will stink;

the streams of Egypt will dwindle and dry up.

The reeds and rushes will wither,

6 and its canals will become foul,

and the branches of Egypt’s Nile will diminish and dry up,

reeds and rushes will rot away.

6 And they shall turn the rivers far away;

And the brooks of defence shall be emptied and dried up:

The reeds and flags shall wither.

6 The canals of the Nile will dry up,

and the streams of Egypt will stink

with rotting reeds and rushes.

6 The rivers will turn foul;

The brooks of defense will be emptied and dried up;

The reeds and rushes will wither.

6 The canals will stink;

the streams of Egypt will decrease and dry up.

All the water plants will rot;

6 And the rivers shall become foul; the streams of Egypt shall be diminished and dried up; the reeds and flags shall wither away.

6 and the rivers shall stink, and the streams of Egypt shall be diminished and drain away: the reeds and sedges shall wither.

6 The channels will stink;

they will dwindle, and Egypt’s canals will be parched.

Reed and rush will die.

6 its canals will become foul,

and the branches of Egypt’s Nile will diminish and dry up,

reeds and rushes will rot away.

6 And the rivers will become foul-smelling;

the branches of the Nile of Egypt will become little and dry up;

reed and rush will wither.

6 Its waterways will stink.

And the streams of Egypt will get smaller and smaller

until they dry up.

The tall grass that grows along the river will dry up.

6 The canals will emit a stench,

The streams of Egypt will thin out and dry up;

The reeds and rushes will rot away.
