5 And the waters of the sea will be cut off, and the river will become dry and waste:
6 And the rivers will have an evil smell; the stream of Egypt will become small and dry: all the water-plants will come to nothing.
7 The grass-lands by the Nile, and everything planted by the Nile, will become dry, or taken away by the wind, and will come to an end.
8 The fishermen will be sad, and all those who put fishing-lines into the Nile will be full of grief, and those whose nets are stretched out on the waters will have sorrow in their hearts.
9 And all the workers in linen thread, and those who make cotton cloth, will be put to shame.
