Isaiah 31:1-5
1WoeH1945 to them that goH3381 down to EgyptH4714 for helpH5833, and relyH982 on horsesH5483, and trustH982 in chariotsH7393 because they are manyH7227, and in horsemenH6571 because they are veryH3966 strong, but they lookH8159 not unto the HolyH6918 OneH6918 of IsraelH3478, neither seekH1875 Jehovah! 2Yet he alsoH1571 is wiseH2450, and will bringH935 evilH7451, and will not call back his wordsH1697, but will ariseH6965 against the houseH1004 of the evil-doers, and against the helpH5833 of them that work iniquity. 3Now the Egyptians are menH120, and not GodH410; and their horsesH5483 fleshH1320, and not spiritH7307: and when Jehovah shall stretchH5186 out his handH3027, both he that helpeth shall stumbleH3782, and he that is helpedH5826 shall fallH5307, and they all shall be consumed togetherH3162.
4For thusH3541 saith Jehovah unto me, As the lionH738 and the youngH3715 lionH738 growling over his preyH2964, if a multitudeH1995 of shepherdsH7462 be calledH7121 forth against him, will not be dismayedH2865 at their voiceH6963, nor abase himself for the noise of them: soH3651 will Jehovah of hostsH6635 comeH3381 down to fight upon mount ZionH6726, and upon the hillH2022 thereof. 5As birdsH6833 hovering, soH3651 will Jehovah of hostsH6635 protect JerusalemH3389; he will protect and deliverH5337 it, he will pass over and preserve it.
