|
||
|
* **when I set fire in Egypt** - Fire refers to the fires that often occurs in war. Alternate translation: "when I destroy Egypt with fire" or "when I send an attacking army to burn Egypt with fire." (See: [[en:ta:vol2:translate:figs_metonymy]])

* **there will be anguish among them in the day of Egypt's doom** - "the people of Cush will also have great pain when I punish Egypt"
|
||
|
