The Egyptians are No Help
The Egyptians are No Help
31 Ah! Those who go down to Egypt for help!They rely on horses
- and trust in chariots because they are many,
- and in horsemen because they are very numerous,
- and they do not look to the holy one of Israel,
- and they do not consult Yahweh.
- 2 And indeed, he is wise, and he brings disaster, and he does not remove his words,
- and he will rise against the house of evildoers
- and against the help of workers of iniquity.
- 3 And the Egyptians are human and not God, and their horses are flesh and not spirit.
- And Yahweh stretches out his hand,
- and the helper will stumble,
- and the one being helped will fall,
- and together all of them will come to an end.[fn]
- 4 For Yahweh said this to me:“As which a lion growls
- and a young lion over its prey
when a full group[fn] of shepherds is called against him,
- it is not terrified by their voice,
- and to their noise it does not respond,
- so Yahweh of hosts will come down to fight upon Mount Zion
- 5 Like birds flying overhead, so Yahweh of hosts will protect Jerusalem;he will protect and deliver it;
- he will pass over and rescue it.
6 Turn back to the one against whom the sons of Israel have made deep rebellion.
- 7 For on that day, each one will reject his idols of silver and his idols of gold which your hands have made in sin for you.
- 8 And Assyria shall fall by a sword not of a man, and a sword not of a human shall devour him;
- and he shall flee from the sword,
- and his young men shall be put to forced labor.
- 9 And his rock will pass over because of terror, and his officers will be terrified because of the flag,”
- declares[fn] Yahweh,
- who has a fire in Zion
- and has a furnace in Jerusalem.
