failed prophecies

hello, im hearing claims about failed prophecies and im hoping you guys can help me out so here they are-
*Isaiah 19:18 In that day shall five cities in the land of Egypt speak the language of Canaan, and swear to the LORD of hosts; one shall be called, The city of destruction.(The Canaanite language has never been spoken in Egypt, and is now an extinct.)
*Isaiah 52:1 Awake, awake; put on thy strength, O Zion; put on thy beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, the holy city: for henceforth there shall no more come into thee the uncircumcised and the unclean.(There are uncircumcised people living in Jerusalem even today)
*Ezekiel 29:10-11 Behold, therefore I am against thee, and against thy rivers, and I will make the land of Egypt utterly waste and desolate, from the tower of Syene even unto the border of Ethiopia. No foot of man shall pass through it, nor foot of beast shall pass through it, neither shall it be inhabited forty years.
(Never in its long history has Egypt ever been uninhabited for forty years)
*Amos 9:15 And I will plant them upon their land, and they shall no more be pulled up out of their land which I have given them, saith the LORD thy God.
(Many times, Jews have been pulled up out of their land. The ownership of their land is still being fought for.)
*Matthew 2:23 And he came and dwelt in a city called Nazareth: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophets, He shall be called a Nazarene.
(Nowhere in the Old Testament is such a prophecy found, so how could such a one be fulfilled?)
Hope you guys can help.
