Isaiah 30:1-17

1“WoeH1945 to the 1rebelliousH5637 childrenH1121,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068, “Who 2executeH6213 a planH6098, but not MineH4480, And 34makeH5259 an allianceH4541, but not of My SpiritH7307, In orderH4616 to addH5595 sinH2403 to sinH2403;2Who 5proceedH1980 downH3381 to EgyptH4714 WithoutH3808 6consultingH7592 7Me, 8To takeH5756 refugeH5756 in the safetyH4581 of PharaohH6547 And to seekH2620 shelterH2620 in the shadowH6738 of EgyptH4714!3Therefore the safetyH4581 of PharaohH6547 will be 9your shameH1322 And the shelterH2622 in the shadowH6738 of EgyptH4714, your humiliationH3639.4For 10their princesH8269 are at ZoanH6814 And their ambassadorsH4397 arriveH5060 at HanesH2609.5EveryoneH3605 will be 11ashamedH954 becauseH5921 of a peopleH5971 who cannotH3808 profitH3276 them, Who are 12not for helpH5828 or profitH3276, but for shameH1322 and alsoH1571 for reproachH2781.”

6The 13oracleH4853 concerning the 14beastsH929 of the 15NegevH5045. Through a landH776 of 16distressH6869 and anguishH6695, From 17whereH1992 come lionessH3833 and lionH3918, viperH660 and 18flyingH5774 serpentH8314, They 19carryH5375 their richesH2428 on the 20backsH3802 of youngH5895 donkeysH5895 And their treasuresH214 on 21camels’H1581 humpsH1707, To a peopleH5971 who cannotH3808 profitH3276 them;7Even EgyptH4714, whose 22helpH5826 is vainH1892 and emptyH7385. ThereforeH3651, I have calledH7121 23her “2425RahabH7294 whoH1992 has been exterminatedH7674.”8NowH6258 goH935, 26writeH3789 it on a tabletH3871 beforeH854 them And inscribeH2710 it on a scrollH5612, That it may 27serveH1961 in the timeH3117 to comeH314 28As a witness foreverH5704H5769.9For thisH1931 is a 29rebelliousH4805 peopleH5971, 30falseH3586 sonsH1121, SonsH1121 who 31refuseH3808H14 to 32listenH8085 To the 33instructionH8451 of the LordH3068;10WhoH834 sayH559 to the 34seersH7203, “You must not seeH7200 visions”; And to the prophetsH2374, “You must not 35prophesyH2372 to us whatH5228 is rightH5228, 36SpeakH1696 to us 37pleasantH2513 wordsH2513, ProphesyH2372 illusionsH4123.11GetH5493 out of the wayH1870, 38turnH5186 asideH5186 from the pathH734, 3940Let us hearH7673 noH7673H4480 moreH7673 about the HolyH6918 OneH6918 of IsraelH3478.” 12ThereforeH3651 thusH3541 saysH559 the HolyH6918 OneH6918 of IsraelH3478, “41SinceH3282 you have rejectedH3988 thisH2088 wordH1697 And have putH982 your trustH982 in 42oppressionH6233 and guileH3868, and have reliedH8172 on them,13ThereforeH3651 thisH2088 43iniquityH5771 will be to you Like a 44breachH6556 about to fallH5307, A bulgeH1158 in a highH7682 wallH2346, WhoseH834 collapseH7667 comesH935 45suddenlyH6597 in an instantH6621,14Whose collapseH7665 is like the smashingH7667 of a 46potter’sH3335 jarH5035, 47So ruthlesslyH3808H2550 shatteredH3807 That a sherdH2789 will not be foundH4672 among its piecesH4386 To 48takeH2846 fireH784 from a hearthH3344 Or to scoopH2834 waterH4325 from a cisternH1360.” 15For thusH3541 the LordH136 49GodH3068, the HolyH6918 OneH6918 of IsraelH3478, has saidH559, “In 50repentanceH7729 and 51restH5183 you will be savedH3467, In 52quietnessH8252 and trustH985 is your strengthH1369.” But you were not willingH14,16And you saidH559, “NoH3808, for we will fleeH5127 on 53horsesH5483,” ThereforeH5921H3651 you shall fleeH5127! “And we will rideH7392 on swiftH7031 horses,” ThereforeH5921H3651 those who pursueH7291 you shall be swiftH7043.1754OneH259 thousandH505 will flee at the threatH1606 of oneH259 man; You will fleeH5127 at the threatH1606 of fiveH2568, UntilH5704H518 you are leftH3498 as a 55flagH8650 on a mountainH2022 topH7218 And as a signalH5251 on a hillH1389.
