Notes

Isaiah 19:22

strike Egypt: The Hebrew verb here is the same as the one used for the tenth plague (Exodus 12:13, 23, 27), reminding us of God's actions during the exodus.
The Lord, who sends a plague, can also heal.
He will hear their prayers and heal them: This expresses a covenantal relationship between the Lord and Egypt (see Isaiah 65:24).

Isaiah 19:19–25
