“He lies down under the lotus plants,

In the hidden shelter of the reeds in the marsh.

Rebuke the beasts [living] among the reeds [in Egypt],

The herd of bulls (the leaders) with the calves of the peoples;

Trampling underfoot the pieces of silver;

He has scattered the peoples who delight in war.

With all trees of frankincense,

Myrrh and aloes, along with all the finest spices.

The canals will become foul-smelling,

The streams of Egypt will thin out and dry up,

In the haunt of jackals, [fn]where they lay resting,

Grass becomes reeds and [fn]rushes.

And the sweet cane from a distant land?
