30:13 “‘This is what the sovereign Lord says:
I will destroy the idols,
and put an end to the gods of Memphis.
There will no longer be a prince from the land of Egypt;
so I will make the land of Egypt fearful. 1
30:16 I will ignite a fire in Egypt;
Syene 2 will writhe in agony,
Thebes will be broken down,
and Memphis will face enemies every day.
1 tn Heb “I will put fear in the land of Egypt.”
2 tc The LXX reads “Syene,” which is Aswan in the south. The MT reads Sin, which has already been mentioned in v. 15.
