Isaiah 30:1-5 ▼

1 ` Woe to the rebellious” sons, says YHWH, “Making counsels not from Me and weaving webs not of My Spirit, for the purpose of adding sin upon sin—

2 those going down to Egypt (and they have not asked My mouth) to take refuge in the stronghold of Pharaoh and to take refuge in the shadow of Egypt!

3 And the strength of Pharaoh will be unto you? for shame, and the refuge in the shadow of Egypt for disgrace.

4 For his princes are in Zoan, and his messengers have reached Hanes;

5 they all come to shame over a people of no profit to them, not for help and not for gain, but for shame and even for scorn.”
