Isaiah 31:2-4
Modern English Version
Isaiah 31:2-4
Modern English Version
2 Yet He also is wise and will bring disaster
and will not call back His words,
but will arise against the house of the evildoers
and against the help of those who work iniquity.
3 Now the Egyptians are men and not God;
and their horses flesh and not spirit.
When the Lord shall stretch out His hand,
both he who helps shall fall
and he who is helped shall fall down,
and they all shall fail together.
4 For thus the Lord has spoken to me:
Like the lion, and the young lion,
roars over his prey,
against which a multitude of shepherds
is called out against him,
he will not be afraid of their voice,
nor disturbed at their noise,
so shall the Lord of Hosts come down
to fight for Mount Zion, and for its hill.

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:
