⁹ Ειπε, Ουτω λεγει Κυριος ο Θεος· θελει ευοδωθη; δεν θελει ανασπασει αυτος τας ριζας αυτης και κοψει τον καρπον αυτης, ωστε να ξηρανθη; θελει ξηρανθη κατα παντα τα φυλλα του βλαστηματος αυτης, χωρις μαλιστα μεγαλης δυναμεως η πολλου λαου, δια να εκσπαση αυτην εκ των ριζων αυτης.

¹⁶ Πλην δεν θελει πληθυνει ιππους εις εαυτον, ουδε θελει επαναφερει τον λαον εις την Αιγυπτον, δια να αυξηση ιππους· διοτι ο Κυριος ειπε προς εσας, Δεν θελετε επιστρεψει πλεον δι' εκεινης της οδου.

²⁵ He shall stir up his power and his courage against the king of the south with a great army; and the king of the south shall war in battle with an exceeding great and mighty army; but he shall not stand; for they shall devise devices against him.

²⁶ Yes, they who eat of his dainties shall destroy him, and his army shall overflow; and many shall fall down slain.
