The botch of Egypt Such boils or blains as the Egyptians were plagued with, spreading from head to foot. The emerods Those painful swellings of the hemorrhoidal vessels, called piles. Blindness Of mind, so that they should not know what to do. Astonishment They should be filled with wonder and horror because of the strangeness and soreness of their calamities. Grope at noon-day In the most clear and evident matters thou shalt grossly mistake. Thy ways Thy counsels and enterprises shall be frustrated and turn to thy destruction. Compare Jeremiah 25:16; Jeremiah 25:18; Zephaniah 1:17; Lamentations 4:14; Jeremiah 4:9; Ezekiel 4:17.

27 The LORD will smite thee with the botch of Egypt, and with the emerods, and with the scab, and with the itch, whereof thou canst not be healed.
28 The LORD shall smite thee with madness, and blindness, and astonishment of heart:
29 And thou shalt grope at noonday, as the blind gropeth in darkness, and thou shalt not prosper in thy ways: and thou shalt be only oppressed and spoiled evermore, and no man shall save thee.
