[19:16] A time is coming when the people of Egypt will be as timid as women. They will tremble in terror when they see that the Lord Almighty has stretched out his hand to punish them.
[19:17] The people of Egypt will be terrified of Judah every time they are reminded of the fate that the Lord Almighty has prepared for them.
[19:18] When that time comes, the Hebrew language will be spoken in five Egyptian cities. The people there will take their oaths in the name of the Lord Almighty. One of the cities will be called, “City of the Sun.”
[19:19] When that time comes, there will be an altar to the Lord in the land of Egypt and a stone pillar dedicated to him at the Egyptian border.
[19:20] They will be symbols of the Lord Almighty's presence in Egypt. When the people there are oppressed and call out to the Lord for help, he will send someone to rescue them.
[19:21] The Lord will reveal himself to the Egyptian people, and then they will acknowledge and worship him, and bring him sacrifices and offerings. They will make solemn promises to him and do what they promise.
[19:22] The Lord will punish the Egyptians, but then he will heal them. They will turn to him, and he will hear their prayers and heal them.
[19:23] When that time comes, there will be a highway between Egypt and Assyria. The people of these two countries will travel back and forth between them, and the two nations will worship together.
[19:24] When that time comes, Israel will rank with Egypt and Assyria, and these three nations will be a blessing to all the world.
[19:25] The Lord Almighty will bless them and say, “I will bless you, Egypt, my people; you, Assyria, whom I created; and you, Israel, my chosen people.”
