Isaiah 31:2-4
Amplified Bible
2
Yet He is also wise and will bring disaster,
And does not retract His words,
But will arise against the house of evildoers
And against the helpers of those who do evil.
3
Now the Egyptians are men and not God,
And their horses are flesh and not spirit;
And the Lord will stretch out His hand,
And he (Egypt) who helps will stumble,
And he (Judah) who is helped will fall,
And all of them will perish together.
4 For so the Lord says to me,
“As the lion or the young lion growls over his prey,
And though a large group of shepherds is called out against him
He will not be terrified at their voice nor cringe at their noise,
So the Lord of hosts will come down to wage war on Mount Zion and on its hill.”
Isaiah 31:2-4
New International Version
2 Yet he too is wise(A) and can bring disaster;(B)
he does not take back his words.(C)
He will rise up against that wicked nation,(D)
against those who help evildoers.
3 But the Egyptians(E) are mere mortals and not God;(F)
their horses(G) are flesh and not spirit.
When the Lord stretches out his hand,(H)
those who help will stumble,
those who are helped(I) will fall;
all will perish together.(J)
4 This is what the Lord says to me:
