In that day shall Egypt be like unto women: and it shall be afraid and fear because of the shaking of the hand of the LORD of hosts, which he shaketh over it.

The verse 16 is found in chapter 19 of Isaiah. The second part of the oracle radically transforms Egypt’s situation. Fear leads to the recognition of Yahweh, altars are erected, and a relationship of blessing is described among Egypt, Assyria, and Israel. The inclusion of former rivals within divine blessing anticipates a universal vision of salvation.

Zu der Zeit wird Ägypten sein wie Weiber und sich fürchten und erschrecken, wenn der HERR Zebaoth die Hand über sie schwingen wird.
En aquel día serán los Egipcios como mujeres; porque se asombrarán y temerán, en la presencia de la mano alta de Jehová de los ejércitos, que él ha de levantar sobre ellos.
En aquel día los egipcios serán como mujeres; temblarán y tendrán miedo ante la mano que Jehová de los ejércitos agita contra ellos.
En ce jour, l'Egypte sera comme des femmes: Elle tremblera et aura peur, En voyant s'agiter la main de l'Eternel des armées, Quand il la lèvera contre elle.
In quel giorno gli Egizi saranno come donne; e tremeranno, e saranno spaventati per lo scuotere della mano del Signor degli eserciti, la quale egli scoterà sopra loro.
Naquele tempo os egípcios serão como mulheres, e tremerão e temerão por causa do movimento da mão do SENHOR dos Exércitos, que há de levantar-se contra eles.
到那日, 埃及 必像婦人一樣,因萬軍之耶和華揮手攻擊而戰兢懼怕。
