King James Version
The burden of Egypt. Lo
, Jehovah
is
riding
on
a swift thick
cloud, And He
hath
entered
Egypt ,
And moved
have
been
the idols of Egypt at His presence, And the heart of Egypt melteth
in its
midst.
The burden of Egypt. Behold
, the
LORD
rideth
upon
a swift cloud, and shall
come
into
Egypt :
and the idols of Egypt shall
be
moved
at his presence, and the heart of Egypt shall
melt
in the
midst of
it
.
And I armed
Egyptians against Egyptians ,
And they fought,
each
against his brother, And each
against his neighbour ,
City against city, kingdom against kingdom.
And I will
set
the
Egyptians against the
Egyptians :
and they shall
fight
every
one
against his brother, and every
one
against his neighbour ;
city against city, and
kingdom against kingdom.
And emptied
out
hath
been
in
its
midst
the spirit of Egypt .
And its
counsel
I swallow
up,
And they have
sought
unto
the idols, And unto
the charmers, And unto
those
having
familiar spirits, And unto
the wizards.
And the spirit of Egypt shall
fail
in
the
midst
thereof;
and I will
destroy
the
counsel
thereof:
and they shall
seek
to
the idols, and to
the charmers, and to
them
that
have
familiar spirits, and to
the wizards.
And I
have
delivered
the Egyptians Into the hand of a hard
lord ,
And a strong
king doth
rule over them, An
affirmation
of
the Lord, Jehovah
of Hosts.
And the Egyptians will
I
give
over
into the hand of a cruel
lord ;
and a fierce
king shall
rule over them, saith
the Lord, the
LORD
of hosts.
And failed
have
waters from the sea, And a
river is
wasted and dried up.
And the
waters shall
fail
from the sea, and the
river shall
be
wasted and dried up.
And they have
turned
away the flowings,
Weak
and dried up have
been
brooks
of
the bulwark,
Reed
and flag
have
withered
.
And they shall
turn
the
rivers
far
away ;
and
the brooks
of
defence
shall
be
emptied
and dried up :
the reeds
and flags
shall
wither
.
Exposed
things
by the brook
, by the edge
of the brook
, And every sown
thing of
the brook
, hath
withered
, It
hath
been
driven away, and is
not
.
The
paper
reeds
by the brooks
, by the mouth
of the brooks
, and every thing sown
by
the brooks
, shall
wither
, be
driven away, and be
no
more
.
And
lamented
have
the fishers, And mourned
have
all casting
angle into a
brook
, And those
spreading
nets on
the
face
of
the waters have
languished
.
The fishers also
shall
mourn
, and all they
that
cast
angle into the
brooks
shall
lament
, and they
that
spread
nets upon
the waters shall
languish
.
And
ashamed
have
been
makers
of
fine flax, And weavers
of
net-works
.
Moreover
they
that
work
in
fine flax, and they
that
weave
networks,
shall
be
confounded
.
And its
foundations
have
been
smitten
, All making
wages
`are'
afflicted
in
soul
.
And they
shall
be
broken
in
the
purposes
thereof
, all that
make
sluices
and
ponds
for
fish
.
Only,
fools
`are'
the princes of Zoan, The counsel of the wise ones
of
the
counsellors of Pharaoh hath
become brutish .
How say ye unto Pharaoh, `A
son of the wise am
I
, a
son of kings of
antiquity
? '
Surely
the princes of Zoan are
fools
, the counsel of the wise counsellors of Pharaoh is
become brutish :
how say ye unto Pharaoh, I
am
the
son of the wise, the
son of ancient
kings?
Where `
are '
they now,
thy wise ones
? Yea,
let them tell to
thee ,
I
pray
thee
, And they
know what Jehovah
of Hosts hath counselled
against
Egypt !

are
thy wise men
? and
let them tell thee now
, and let
them
know what the
LORD
of hosts hath purposed
upon
Egypt .

princes of Zoan are
become
fools
, the
princes of Noph are
deceived;

.
Jehovah
hath mingled in
her
midst
A spirit of
perverseness,
And they have caused Egypt to err in all
its
work, As a drunkard
erreth
in his vomit.

LORD
hath mingled a perverse
spirit in
the
midst
thereof:

work thereof
, as a drunken
man
staggereth
in his vomit.
And
there is
no

, may do.

counselling
against it.

himself, because of the counsel of the
LORD
of hosts, which
he hath
determined
against it.
