1 Alas for those disobedient chyldren saith the Lorde, that they will take counsell and not of me, that they wyll take a secrete aduice and not out of my spirite, and therefore adde they sinne vnto sinne. 2 Euen they that walke to go downe into Egypt, and haue asked no question at my mouth, but seeke strength in the might of Pharao, and trust in the shadowe of Egypt. 3 Therefore shall the strength of Pharao be your confusion, and the trust in the shadowe of Egypt your shame. 4 For his captaynes were at Zoan, and his embassadours came vnto Hanes. 5 They were ashamed of the people that coulde do them no good, and that might not helpe them nor shewe them any profit, but were their confusion and rebuke. Isaiah 30:1-5, Bishops' Bible of 1568. Public domain.
