And it shall come to pass, {that} the fishers shall stand upon it from Engedi even unto Eneglaim; they shall be a {place} to spread forth nets; their fish shall be according to their kinds, as the fish of the great sea, exceeding many.
They take up all of them with the angle, they catch them in their net, and gather them in their drag: therefore they rejoice and are glad. {drag: or, flue net}
We remember the fish, which we did eat in Egypt freely; the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and the garlick:
And the fish that {was} in the river died; and the river stank, and the Egyptians could not drink of the water of the river; and there was blood throughout all the land of Egypt.
They take up all of them with the angle, they catch them in their net, and gather them in their drag: therefore they rejoice and are glad. {drag: or, flue net}
Shall they therefore empty their net, and not spare continually to slay the nations?
