Isaiah 30:4-6

International Children’s Bible

⁴Your officers have gone to Zoan.
    Your messengers have gone to Hanes.
⁵But they will be put to shame,
    because Egypt is useless to them.
Egypt will give no help and be of no use.
    It will cause them only shame and embarrassment.”

God’s Message to Judah

⁶This is the message about the animals in southern Judah:

Southern Judah is a dangerous place.
    It is full of lions and lionesses,
    poisonous snakes and darting snakes.
The messengers travel through there with their wealth on donkeys’ backs.
    They have put their treasure on the backs of camels.
They carry them to a nation that cannot help them.
