GOD’S WORD Translation
Isaiah 30:1-3
GOD’S WORD Translation
Judah Should Trust the Lord, Not Egypt
30 The Lord declares,
“How horrible it will be for those rebellious children.
They carry out plans, but not mine.
They make alliances against my will.
They pile sin on top of sin.
2 They go to Egypt without asking me.
They look for shelter under Pharaoh’s protection
and look for refuge in Egypt’s shadow.
3 But Pharaoh’s protection will be their shame,
and the refuge in Egypt’s shadow will be their disgrace.
Isaiah 30:1-3
New International Version
Isaiah 30:1-3
New International Version
Woe to the Obstinate Nation
30 “Woe(A) to the obstinate children,”(B)
declares the Lord,
“to those who carry out plans that are not mine,
forming an alliance,(C) but not by my Spirit,
heaping sin upon sin;
2 who go down to Egypt(D)
without consulting(E) me;
who look for help to Pharaoh’s protection,(F)
to Egypt’s shade for refuge.(G)
3 But Pharaoh’s protection will be to your shame,
Egypt’s shade(H) will bring you disgrace.(I)
