For the Egyptiansª shall helpª° in vain,ª and to no purpose:ª therefore¹ have I criedª° concerning this,ª Their² strengthª [is] to sit still.ª" {Isa 30:5-7} + "And they shall be afraidª° and ashamedª° of Ethiopiaª¹ their expectation,ª and of¹ Egyptª their glory.ª" {Isa 20:5} + "Then Pharaoh'sª armyª was come forthª° out of Egypt:ª¹ and when the Chaldeansª that besiegedª°¹ Jerusalemª heardª°¹ tidingsª of them, they departedª° from¹¹ Jerusalem.ª ... For¹ though¹ ye had smittenª° the whole¹ armyª of the Chaldeansª that fightª° against¹ you, and there remainedª° [but] woundedª° men²¹ among them, [yet] should they rise¹ up²° every manª in his tent,ª and burnª°¹ this¹ cityª with fire.ª" {Jer 37:5-10}
