Isaiah 19:18–25

¹⁸In that day^l five cities^m in Egypt will speak the language of Canaan and swear allegianceⁿ to the Lord Almighty. One of them will be called the City of the Sun.^ao

¹⁹In that day^p there will be an altar^q to the Lord in the heart of Egypt,^r and a monument^s to the Lord at its border. ²⁰It will be a sign and witness^t to the Lord Almighty in the land of Egypt. When they cry out to the Lord because of their oppressors, he will send them a savior^u and defender, and he will rescue^v them. ²¹So the Lord will make himself known to the Egyptians, and in that day they will acknowledge^w the Lord. They will worship^x with sacrifices and grain offerings; they will make vows to the Lord and keep them.^{y 22}The Lord will strike^z Egypt with a plague;^a he will strike them and heal them. They will turn^b to the Lord, and he will respond to their pleas and heal^c them.

²³In that day^d there will be a highway^e from Egypt to Assyria.^f The Assyrians will go to Egypt and the Egyptians to Assyria. The Egyptians and Assyrians will worship^g together. ²⁴In that day^h Israel will be the third, along with Egypt and Assyria,ⁱ a blessing^bj on the earth. ²⁵The Lord Almighty will bless^k them, saying, “Blessed be Egypt my people,^l Assyria my handiwork,^m and Israel my inheritance.ⁿ”
