5The waters of the Nile River will dry up.

The bottom of it will be cracked and dry.

6Its 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.

7So will the plants along the banks of the Nile.

Even the planted fields along the Nile will dry up.

Everything that grows there will blow away and disappear.

ESVEnglish Standard Version

And the waters of the sea will be dried up,

and the river will be dry and parched,

and its canals will become foul,

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

reeds and rushes will rot away.

There will be bare places by the Nile,

on the brink of the Nile,

and all that is sown by the Nile will be parched,

will be driven away, and will be no more.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

The waters of the river will dry up,

and the riverbed will be parched and dry.

The canals will stink;

the streams of Egypt will dwindle and dry up.

The reeds and rushes will wither,

also the plants along the Nile,

at the mouth of the river.

Every sown field along the Nile

will become parched, will blow away and be no more.

CSBChristian Standard Bible

The water of the sea will dry up,

and the river will be parched and dry.

The channels will stink;

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

Reed and rush will wilt.

The reeds by the Nile, by the mouth of the river,

and all the cultivated areas of the Nile

will wither, blow away, and vanish.

NLTNew Living Translation

The waters of the Nile will fail to rise and flood the fields.

The riverbed will be parched and dry.

The canals of the Nile will dry up,

and the streams of Egypt will stink

with rotting reeds and rushes.

All the greenery along the riverbank

and all the crops along the river

will dry up and blow away.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

And the waters will be dried up from the sea,

and the river will be parched and dry.

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.

Bare places by the Nile will be dried up,

by the edge of the Nile and all the sown land of the Nile;

it will be driven about, and it will be no more.

KJV 1900King James Version

And the waters shall fail from the sea,

And the river shall be wasted and dried up.

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.

The paper reeds by the brooks, by the mouth of the brooks,

And every thing sown by the brooks,

Shall wither, be driven away, and be no more.
