19:5 The water of the sea will be dried up,

and the river will dry up and be empty.

19:6 The canals will stink;

the streams of Egypt will trickle and then dry up;

the bulrushes and reeds will decay,

19:7 along with the plants by the mouth of the river.

All the cultivated land near the river

will turn to dust and be blown away.

Isaiah 30:23

30:23 He will water the seed you plant in the ground,

and the ground will produce crops in abundance.

55:10 The rain and snow fall from the sky

and do not return,

but instead water the earth

and make it produce and yield crops,

and provide seed for the planter and food for those who must eat.

does not return to me, having accomplished nothing.

No, it is realized as I desire

and is fulfilled as I intend.”
