Isaiah 19:5-10 NIV
5 The waters of the river will dry up,
and the riverbed will be parched and dry.

The reeds and rushes will wither,

at the mouth of the river.
Every sown field along the Nile
will become parched, will blow away and be no more.

all who cast hooks into the Nile;
those who throw nets on the water
will pine away.

the weavers of fine linen will lose hope.
10 The workers in cloth will be dejected,
and all the wage earners will be sick at heart.
