Isaias

Hebrew Bible

Hebrew Bible, Isaias, Ottley, Cambridge, 1904

13 The princes of Zoan are befooled, the princes of Noph are deceived: they have led Egypt astray, the cornerstone of her tribes.

14 The Lord hath mingled a spirit of perverseness in the midst of her; and they have led Egypt astray in all his work, as a drunkard strays in his vomit.

15 Neither shall there be a work for Egypt, whichihead or tail, palm branch or rush, can do.

16 In that day shall Egypt be as women, and shall tremble and fear before the face of the waving of the hand of the Lord of Hosts, which he waveth over it.

17 And the land of Judah shall be for a terror to Egypt; whosoever maketh mention of it, unto him they turn in fear, before the purpose of the LORD of Hosts, which he purposeth concerning it.

18 In that day shall there be five cities in the land of Egypt speaking the language of Canaan, and swearing to the Lord of Hosts; one shall be called, City of destruction.
