ESVEnglish Standard Version

“For thus says the Lord God: The sword of the king of Babylon shall come upon you. I will cause your multitude to fall by the swords of mighty ones, all of them most ruthless of nations.

“They shall bring to ruin the pride of Egypt,

and all its multitude shall perish.

I will destroy all its beasts

from beside many waters;

and no foot of man shall trouble them anymore,

nor shall the hoofs of beasts trouble them.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

“ ‘For this is what the Sovereign Lord says:

“ ‘The sword of the king of Babylon

will come against you.

I will cause your hordes to fall

by the swords of mighty men—

the most ruthless of all nations.

They will shatter the pride of Egypt,

and all her hordes will be overthrown.

I will destroy all her cattle

from beside abundant waters

no longer to be stirred by the foot of man

or muddied by the hooves of cattle.

CSBChristian Standard Bible

“ ‘For this is what the Lord God says:

The sword of Babylon’s king

will come against you!

I will make your hordes fall

by the swords of warriors,

all of them ruthless men from the nations.

They will ravage Egypt’s pride,

and all its hordes will be destroyed.

I will slaughter all its cattle

that are beside many waters.

No human foot will churn them again,

and no cattle hooves will disturb them.

NLTNew Living Translation

For this is what the Sovereign Lord says:

“The sword of the king of Babylon

will come against you.

I will destroy your hordes with the swords of mighty warriors—

the terror of the nations.

They will shatter the pride of Egypt,

and all its hordes will be destroyed.

I will destroy all your flocks and herds

that graze beside the streams.

Never again will people or animals

muddy those waters with their feet.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

For thus says the Lord Yahweh:

“The sword of the king of Babylon,

it will come to you.

By the swords of warriors I will cause to fall your hordes

by the most ruthless of the nations, all of them,

and they will devastate the majesty of Egypt,

and all of its hordes will be destroyed.

And I will destroy all her domestic livestock

beside many waters.

The feet of humans will not make them turbid again,

and the hooves of domestic livestock will not make them turbid.
