Bible. Isaiah
23:029:022 Therefore thus saith the LORD, who redeemed Abraham,
concerning the house of Jacob, Jacob shall not now be ashamed,
neither shall his face now wax pale.
23:029:023 But when he seeth his children, the work of mine hands, in the
midst of him, they shall sanctify my name, and sanctify the
Holy One of Jacob, and shall fear the God of Israel.
23:029:024 They also that erred in spirit shall come to understanding,
and they that murmured shall learn doctrine.
23:030:001 Woe to the rebellious children, saith the LORD, that take
counsel, but not of me; and that cover with a covering, but
not of my spirit, that they may add sin to sin:
23:030:002 That walk to go down into Egypt, and have not asked at my
mouth; to strengthen themselves in the strength of Pharaoh,
and to trust in the shadow of Egypt!
23:030:003 Therefore shall the strength of Pharaoh be your shame, and the
trust in the shadow of Egypt your confusion.
23:030:004 For his princes were at Zoan, and his ambassadors came to
Hanes.
23:030:005 They were all ashamed of a people that could not profit them,
nor be an help nor profit, but a shame, and also a reproach.
23:030:006 The burden of the beasts of the south: into the land of
trouble and anguish, from whence come the young and old lion,
the viper and fiery flying serpent, they will carry their
riches upon the shoulders of young asses, and their treasures
upon the bunches of camels, to a people that shall not profit
them.
23:030:007 For the Egyptians shall help in vain, and to no purpose:
therefore have I cried concerning this, Their strength is to
sit still.
23:030:008 Now go, write it before them in a table, and note it in a
book, that it may be for the time to come for ever and ever:
23:030:009 That this is a rebellious people, lying children, children
that will not hear the law of the LORD:
23:030:010 Which say to the seers, See not; and to the prophets, Prophesy
not unto us right things, speak unto us smooth things,
prophesy deceits:
23:030:011 Get you out of the way, turn aside out of the path, cause the
Holy One of Israel to cease from before us.
23:030:012 Wherefore thus saith the Holy One of Israel, Because ye
despise this word, and trust in oppression and perverseness,
and stay thereon:
23:030:013 Therefore this iniquity shall be to you as a breach ready to
fall, swelling out in a high wall, whose breaking cometh
suddenly at an instant.
