Isaiah 19:11-13

International Children’s Bible

¹¹ The officers of the city of Zoan are fools.
    The wise men who advise the king of Egypt give wrong advice.
How can they say to him they are wise?
    How can they say they are from the old family of the kings?
¹² Egypt, where are your wise men?
    Let them show you
what the Lord of heaven’s armies has planned for Egypt.
¹³ The officers of Zoan have been fooled.
    The leaders of Memphis have believed false things.
So the leaders of Egypt
    lead her the wrong way.
