Isaiah 30:4-6
1599 Geneva Bible
4 For his [a]princes were at Zoan, and his ambassadors came unto Hanes.
5 They shall be all ashamed of the people that cannot profit them, nor help, nor do them good, but shall be a shame and also a reproach.
6 ¶ The [b]burden of the beasts of the South, in a land of trouble and anguish, from whence shall come the young and old lion, the viper and fiery flying serpent against them that shall bear their riches upon the shoulders of the colts, and their treasures upon the bunches of the camels, to a people that cannot profit.
