changing your way!

You shall be put to shame by Egypt

as you were put to shame by Assyria.

You will be disappointed by Egypt

as you were by Assyria.

You will be put to shame by Egypt

just as you were put to shame by Assyria.

But your new friends in Egypt will let you down,

just as Assyria did before.

Also by Egypt you will be put to shame,

just as you were put to shame by Assyria.
