“For the day is near, even the day of the Lord is near, a cloudy day; it shall be the time of the heathen.”
Thus says the Lord God: The defenders of Egypt shall fall, and its proud might shall come down; from Migdol to Syene they shall fall within it by the sword, declares the Lord God, specifying that even Egypt's military defenders will perish, with devastation extending the full length of Egypt. The phrase 'proud might' recalls earlier descriptions of Pharaoh's presumption, suggesting that arrogance will be shattered by military defeat.
