- to the Egyptians:
- "Woeª to the rebelliousª° children,ª saithª° the LORD,ª that takeª° counsel,ª but not¹ of¹ me; and that coverª° with a covering,ª but not¹ of my spirit,ª that¹ they may addª° sinª to¹ sin:ª ... The burdenª of the beastsª of the south:ª into the landª of troubleª and anguish,ª from¹ whence [come] the youngª and old lion,ª the viperª and fiery²° flying²° serpent,ª¹ they will carryª° their richesª upon¹ the shouldersª of young asses,ª and their treasuresª upon¹ the bunchesª of camels,ª to¹ a peopleª [that] shall not¹ profitª° [them]." {Isa 30:1-6} + "Woeª to them that go downª° to Egyptª for help;ª and stayª° on¹ horses,ª and trustª° in¹ chariots,ª because¹ [they are] many;ª and in¹ horsemen,ª because¹ they are very² strong;ª°¹ but they lookª° not¹ unto¹ the Holy Oneª of Israel,ª neither¹ seekª° the LORD!ª ... Now the Egyptiansª [are] men,ª and not¹ God;ª and their horsesª flesh,ª and not¹ spirit.ª When the LORDª shall stretch outª° his hand,ª both he that helpethª° shall fall,ª° and he that is holpenª° shall fall down,ª° and they all¹ shall failª° together.ª" {Isa 31:1-3} + "And thou wentestª° to the kingª with ointment,ª and didst increaseª° thy perfumes,ª and didst sendª° thy messengersª far off,ª¹¹ and didst debaseª° [thyself even] unto¹ hell.ª" {Isa 57:9} + "And now¹ what¹ hast thou to do in the wayª of Egypt,ª to drinkª° the watersª of Sihor?ª or what¹ hast thou to do in the wayª of Assyria,ª to drinkª° the watersª of the river?ª" {Jer 2:18} + "Why¹ gaddest¹ thou about²° so muchª to changeª°¹ thy way?ª thou also¹ shalt be ashamedª° of Egypt,ª¹ as¹ thou wast ashamedª° of Assyria.ª¹" {Jer 2:36} + "And I will takeª°¹ the remnantª of Judah,ª that¹ have setª° their facesª to go²° into¹ the landª of Egyptª to sojournª° there,¹ and they shall all¹ be consumed,ª° [and] fallª° in the landª of Egypt;ª they shall [even] be consumedª° by the swordª [and] by the famine:ª they shall die,ª° from the leastª¹ even unto¹ the greatest,ª by the swordª and by the famine:ª and they shall be¹ an execration,ª [and] an astonishment,ª and a curse,ª and a reproach.ª ... So that none¹ of the remnantª of Judah,ª which are goneª° into the landª of Egyptª to sojournª° there,¹ shall¹ escapeª or remain,ª that they should returnª° into the landª of Judah,ª to the which¹ they¹ have²° a desireª¹¹ to returnª° to dwellª° there:¹ for¹ none¹ shall returnª° but¹¹ such as shall escape.²¹" {Jer 44:12-14} + "When Ephraimª sawª°¹ his sickness,ª and Judahª [saw]¹ his wound,ª then went²°¹ Ephraimª to¹ the Assyrian,ª and sentª° to¹ kingª Jareb:ª°²° yet couldª° he¹ not¹ healª° you, nor¹ cureª°¹ you of your wound.ª" {Hsa 5:13} + "Ephraimª also is¹ like a sillyª° doveª without¹ heart:ª they callª° to Egypt,ª they goª° to Assyria.ª" {Hsa 7:11} + "They shall not¹ dwellª° in the LORD'Sª land;ª but Ephraimª shall returnª° to Egypt,ª and they shall eatª° uncleanª [things] in Assyria.ª" {Hsa 9:3} + "Ephraimª feedethª° on wind,ª and followeth²° after¹ the east wind:ª he dailyª¹ increasethª° liesª and desolation;ª and they do makeª° a covenantª with¹ the Assyrians,ª and oilª is carriedª° into Egypt.ª" {Hsa 12:1}
