Isaiah 30:5-7
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
5 everyone comes to shame
through a people that cannot profit them,
that brings neither help nor profit,
only shame and disgrace.(A)
6 An oracle concerning the animals of the Negeb.
Through a land of trouble and distress,
of lioness and roaring[a] lion,
of viper and flying serpent,
they carry their riches on the backs of donkeys
and their treasures on the humps of camels
to a people that cannot profit them.(B)
7 For Egypt’s help is worthless and empty;
therefore I have called her,
“Rahab who sits still.”[b](C)
