Isaiah 31

Revised Version 1895

1WoeH1945 to them that goH3381 downH3381 to EgyptH4714 for helpH5833, and stay on horsesH5483; and trustH982 in chariotsH7393, becauseH3588 they are manyH7227, and in horsemenH6571, becauseH3588 they are veryH3966 strongH6105; but they lookH8159 notH3808 unto the HolyH6918 One of IsraelH3478, neitherH3808 seekH1875 the LORDH3068! 2Yet he also is wiseH2450, and will bringH935 evilH7451, and will notH3808 call backH935 his wordsH1697: but will ariseH6965 againstH5921 the houseH1004 of the evil-doers, and againstH5921 the helpH5833 of them that workH6466 iniquityH205. 3NowH120 the EgyptiansH4714 are menH120, and notH3808 GodH410; and their horsesH5483 fleshH1320, and notH3808 spiritH7307: and when the LORDH3068 shall stretchH5186 outH5186 his handH3027, bothH3605 he that helpeth shall stumbleH3782, and he that is holpen shall fallH5307, and they allH3605 shall failH3615 togetherH3162. 4For thusH3541 saith the LORDH3068 unto meH413, Like as when the lionH738 growleth and the youngH3715 lionH738 over his preyH2964, ifH3588 a multitudeH1995 of shepherdsH7462 be calledH7121 forth againstH5921 him, he will notH3808 be dismayedH2865 at their voiceH6963, norH3808 abase himselfH413 for the noiseH6963 of them: soH3651 shall the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 comeH3381 downH3381 to fight uponH5921 mountH2022 ZionH6726, and uponH5921 the hillH2022 thereof. 5As birdsH6833 flying, soH3651 will the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 protectH1598 JerusalemH3389; he will protectH1598 and deliverH5337 it, he will pass over and preserve it. 6TurnH7725 ye unto him from whomH834 ye have deeplyH6009 revolted, O childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478. 7For in that dayH3117 they shall cast away everyH376 manH376 his idolsH457 of silverH3701, and his idolsH457 of goldH2091, whichH834 your ownH376 handsH3027 have madeH6213 unto youH834 for a sinH2399. 8Then shall the Assyrian fallH5307 with the swordH2719, notH3808 of manH376; and the swordH2719, notH3808 of menH376, shall devourH398 him: and he shall fleeH5127 from the swordH2719, and his youngH970 menH376 shall becomeH1961 tributary. 9And his rockH5553 shall passH5674 awayH5674 by reasonH834 of terrorH4032, and his princesH8269 shall be dismayedH2865 at the ensign, saith the LORDH3068, whoseH834 fireH217 is in ZionH6726, and his furnaceH8574 in JerusalemH3389.
