## Isaiah 19:6 in Context (Verses 3–9 KJV)
 
 [3 ](/kjv/isaiah/19/3) And the spirit of Egypt shall fail in the midst thereof; and I will destroy the counsel thereof: and they shall seek to the idols, and to the charmers, and to them that have familiar spirits, and to the wizards.**
 
 [4 ](/kjv/isaiah/19/4) And the Egyptians will I give over into the hand of a cruel lord; and a fierce king shall rule over them, saith the Lord, the LORD of hosts.*
 
 [5 ](/kjv/isaiah/19/5) And the waters shall fail from the sea, and the river shall be wasted and dried up.
 
 [6 ](/kjv/isaiah/19/6) And they shall turn the rivers far away; *and* the brooks of defence shall be emptied and dried up: the reeds and flags shall wither.
 
 [7 ](/kjv/isaiah/19/7) The paper reeds by the brooks, by the mouth of the brooks, and every thing sown by the brooks, shall wither, be driven away, and be no *more*.*
 
 [8 ](/kjv/isaiah/19/8) The fishers also shall mourn, and all they that cast angle into the brooks shall lament, and they that spread nets upon the waters shall languish.
 
 [9 ](/kjv/isaiah/19/9) Moreover they that work in fine flax, and they that weave networks, shall be confounded.*
 
[Isaiah 18](/kjv/isaiah/18) [Isaiah 20](/kjv/isaiah/20)
