Isaiah 19:19

17 And the land of Judah will be a terror to Egypt; everyone who makes mention of it will be afraid in himself, because of the counsel of the Lord of hosts which He has ^adetermined against it.

Egypt, Assyria, and Israel Blessed

18 In that day five cities in the land of Egypt will ^aspeak the language of Canaan and ^bswear by the Lord of hosts; one will be called the City of¹ Destruction.

19 In that day ^athere will be an altar to the Lord in the midst of the land of Egypt, and a pillar to the ^bLord at its border.

20 And ^ait will be for a sign and for a witness to the Lord of hosts in the land of Egypt; for they will cry to the Lord because of the oppressors, and He will send them a ^bSavior and a Mighty One, and He will deliver them.

21 Then the Lord will be known to Egypt, and the Egyptians will ^aknow the Lord in that day, and ^bwill make sacrifice and offering; yes, they will make a vow to the Lord and perform it.

22 And the Lord will strike Egypt, He will strike and ^aheal it; they will return to the Lord, and He will be entreated by them and heal them.

23 In that day ^athere will be a highway from Egypt to Assyria, and the Assyrian will come into Egypt and the Egyptian into Assyria, and the Egyptians will ^bserve with the Assyrians.

24 In that day Israel will be one of three with Egypt and Assyria—a blessing in the midst of the land,
