Isaiah 30:5-7

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁵the people of Judah will be put to shame
because that nation can’t help them.
That nation can’t give aid or help to them.
It can only offer shame and disgrace.”

⁶This is the divine revelation about the animals in the Negev.

“My people travel through lands
where they experience distress and hardship.
Lions and lionesses live there.
Vipers and poisonous snakes live there.
They carry their riches on the backs of young donkeys
and their treasures on the humps of camels
to a nation that can’t help them.
⁷Egypt’s help is completely useless.
That is why I call it, ‘Rahab ^[a] who sits still.’
