6 And the rivers will have an evil smell; the stream of Egypt will become small and dry: all the water-plants will come to nothing.
7 The grass-lands by the Nile, and everything planted by the Nile, will become dry, or taken away by the wind, and will come to an end.
8 The fishermen will be sad, and all those who put fishing-lines into the Nile will be full of grief, and those whose nets are stretched out on the waters will have sorrow in their hearts.
9 And all the workers in linen thread, and those who make cotton cloth, will be put to shame.
10 And the makers of twisted thread will be crushed, and those who ... will be sad in heart.
