On that day five cities in the land of Egypt will be speaking the language of Canaan and ^(C1)swearing allegiance to the LORD of armies; one will be called the City of ^(F1)Destruction.

On that day there will be an ^(C1)altar to the LORD in the midst of the land of Egypt, and a ^(C2)memorial stone to the LORD beside its border.

And it will become a sign and a witness to the LORD of armies in the land of Egypt; for they will cry out to the LORD because of oppressors, and He will send them a ^(C1)Savior and a ^(C2)Champion, and He will save them.

So the LORD will make Himself known to Egypt, and the Egyptians will know the LORD on that day. They will even worship with ^(C1)sacrifice and offering, and will make a vow to the LORD and perform it.

And the LORD will strike Egypt, striking but ^(C1)healing; so they will ^(C2)return to the LORD, and He will respond to their pleas and heal them.

On that day there will be a ^(C1)road from Egypt to Assyria, and the Assyrians will come into Egypt and the Egyptians into Assyria; and the Egyptians will ^(C2)worship with the Assyrians.

On that day Israel will be the third party to Egypt and Assyria, a blessing in the midst of the earth,

whom the LORD of armies has blessed, saying, "Blessed is ^(C1)Egypt My people, and Assyria ^(C2)the work of My hands, and Israel My inheritance."
