30:16 I will ignite a fire in Egypt;

Syene ¹  will writhe in agony,

Thebes will be broken down,

and Memphis will face enemies every day.

Ezekiel 30:13

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. ²
