Isaiah 36:6-9

6Look nowH2009, you are trustingH982 inH5921 EgyptH4714, thatH2088 splinteredH7533 reedH7070 of a staffH4938 thatH834 will pierceH935H5344 the handH3709 of anyoneH376 who leansH5564 on itH5921. Such isH3651 PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714 to allH3605 who trustH982 in himH5921. 7But ifH3588 you sayH559 to meH413, ‘We trustH982 inH413 the LORDH3068 our GodH430,’ is HeH1931 notH3808 the OneH834 whose high placesH1116 and altarsH4196 HezekiahH2396 has removedH5493, sayingH559 to JudahH3063 and JerusalemH3389, ‘You must worshipH7812 beforeH6440 thisH2088 altarH4196’?

8Now, thereforeH6258, make a bargainH6148H4994 withH854 my masterH113, the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804. I will giveH5414 you two thousandH505 horsesH5483—ifH518 you canH3201 putH5414 ridersH7392 on themH5921! 9For howH349 can you repelH7725 a singleH259 officerH6346 among the leastH6996 of my master’sH113 servantsH5650 when you dependH982 onH5921 EgyptH4714 for chariotsH7393 and horsemenH6571?
