20 You say you have the counsel and the might for war—but you speak only empty words. On whom are you depending, that you rebel against me? 21 Look, I know you are depending on Egypt, that splintered reed of a staff, which pierces the hand of anyone who leans on it! Such is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all who depend on him. 2 Kings 18:20-21, New International Version. Copyright © 1973, 1978, 1984, 2011 by Biblica, Inc.
