20 Do you think that mere words are strategy and power for war? On whom do you now rely, that you have rebelled against me? 21 See, you are relying now on Egypt, that broken reed of a staff, which will pierce the hand of anyone who leans on it. Such is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all who rely on him. 2 Kings 18:20-21, NRSV Catholic Edition. Copyright © 1989, 1993 by the National Council of the Churches of Christ.
