- 其中的雇勇、好像圈裡的肥牛犢.他們轉身退後、一齊逃跑、站立不住.因為他們遭難的日子、追討的時候、已經臨到。
- 其中的聲音、好像蛇行一樣.敵人要成隊而來、如砍伐樹木的手拿斧子攻擊他。
- 耶和華說、埃及的樹林、雖然不能尋察、〔或作穿不過〕敵人卻要砍伐、因他們多於蝗蟲、不可勝數。
- 埃及的民〔民原文作女子〕必然蒙羞.必交在北方人的手中。
- 萬軍之耶和華以色列的 神說、我必刑罰挪的亞捫〔埃及尊大之神〕和法老、並埃及、與埃及的神、以及君王.也必刑罰法老、和倚靠他的人。

- The mercenaries in her ranks are like fattened calves. They too will turn and flee together, they will not stand their ground, for the day of disaster is coming upon them, the time for them to be punished.
- Egypt will hiss like a fleeing serpent as the enemy advances in force; they will come against her with axes, like men who cut down trees.
- They will chop down her forest," declares the LORD, "dense though it be. They are more numerous than locusts, they cannot be counted.
- The Daughter of Egypt will be put to shame, handed over to the people of the north."
- The LORD Almighty, the God of Israel, says: "I am about to bring punishment on Amon god of Thebes, on Pharaoh, on Egypt and her gods and her kings, and on those who rely on Pharaoh.
