Isaiah 19:11-16

11The princesH8269 of ZoanH6814 are utterly foolish; the counselH6098 of the wisestH2450 counsellors of PharaohH6547 is become brutish: howH349 sayH559 ye unto PharaohH6547, I am the sonH1121 of the wiseH2450, the sonH1121 of ancient kingsH4428? 12WhereH335 thenH645 are thy wiseH2450 men? and let them tellH5046 thee now; and let them knowH3045 what Jehovah of hostsH6635 hath purposed concerning EgyptH4714. 13The princesH8269 of ZoanH6814 are becomeH2973 foolsH2973, the princesH8269 of MemphisH5297 are deceived; they have caused EgyptH4714 to goH8582 astrayH8582, that are the corner-stone of her tribesH7626. 14Jehovah hath mingled a spiritH7307 of perverseness in the midstH7130 of her; and they have caused EgyptH4714 to goH8582 astrayH8582 in every workH4639 thereof, as a drunkenH7910 man staggereth in his vomitH6892. 15Neither shall there beH1961 for EgyptH4714 any workH4639, which headH7218 or tailH2180, palm-branch or rush, may do.

16In that dayH3117 shall the Egyptians beH1961 like unto womenH802; and they shall trembleH2729 and fearH6342 because of the shaking of the handH3027 of Jehovah of hostsH6635, which he shaketh over them.
