KJV ORIGINAL
And I will kindle a fire in the houses of the gods of Egypt; and he shall burn them, and carry them away captives: and he shall array himself with the land of Egypt, as a shepherd putteth on his garment; and he shall go forth from thence in peace.
Close to the original. Clear modern English.
✦ MADE SIMPLE
I'm going to set fire to Egypt's temples and burn down their gods. He'll destroy them and haul away whatever's left as prizes. He'll wrap up Egypt like it's his own land — the way a shepherd throws on his coat — and then walk away without a scratch.
⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE
God's about to let someone completely take over Egypt like it's nothing, and there's no stopping it.
