Isaiah 30:1-9

1WoeH1945 to the rebelliousH5637 childrenH1121, saithH5002 YhwhH3068, that takeH6213 counselH6098, but not of me; and that coverH5258 with a coveringH4541, but not of my spiritH7307, that they may addH5595 sinH2403 to sinH2403: 2That walkH1980 to go downH3381 into EgyptH4714, and have not askedH7592 at my mouthH6310; to strengthenH5810 themselves in the strengthH4581 of PharaohH6547, and to trustH2620 in the shadowH6738 of EgyptH4714! 3Therefore shall the strengthH4581 of PharaohH6547 be your shameH1322, and the trustH2622 in the shadowH6738 of EgyptH4714 your confusionH3639. 4For his princesH8269 were at ZoanH6814, and his ambassadorsH4397 cameH5060 to HanesH2609. 5They were all ashamedH3001 of a peopleH5971 that could not profitH3276 them, nor be an helpH5828 nor profitH3276, but a shameH1322, and also a reproachH2781. 6The burdenH4853 of the beastsH929 of the southH5045: into the landH776 of troubleH6869 and anguishH6695, from whence come the youngH3833 and old lionH3918, the viperH660 and fieryH8314 flyingH5774 serpentH8314, they will carryH5375 their richesH2428 upon the shouldersH3802 of young donkeysH5895, and their treasuresH214 upon the bunchesH1707 of camelsH1581, to a peopleH5971 that shall not profitH3276 them. 7For the EgyptiansH4714 shall helpH5826 in vainH1892, and to no purposeH7385: therefore have I criedH7121 concerning thisH2063, TheirH1992 strengthH7293 is to sit stillH7674.1

8Now goH935, writeH3789 it before them in a tableH3871, and noteH2710 it in a bookH5612, that it may be for the timeH3117 to comeH314 forH5704 everH5703 and everH5769:2 9That this is a rebelliousH4805 peopleH5971, lyingH3586 childrenH1121, childrenH1121 that willH14 not hearH8085 the lawH8451 of YhwhH3068:
