Isaiah 30:1-2

International Children’s Bible

“How terrible it will be for these stubborn children.
They make plans, but they don’t ask me to help them.
    They make agreements with other nations, without asking my Spirit.
    They are adding more and more sins to themselves.
² They go down to Egypt for help,
    but they didn’t ask me about it first.
They hope they will be saved by the king of Egypt.
    They want Egypt to protect them.
