“Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I will bring a sword upon thee, and cut off man and beast out of thee.”
Because you said, 'The Nile is mine; I made it,' therefore, behold, I am against you, and against your streams, and I will make the land of Egypt an utter waste and desolation, from Migdol to Syene, as far as the border of Cush, directly attributing judgment to Pharaoh's blasphemous claim of divine powers over the Nile. The geographic scope—from Migdol (north) to Syene (south) to the Cushite border—indicates total territorial devastation from north to south. This comprehensive destruction means that nowhere in Egypt will escape judgment.
