“Yet he also is wise, and will bring disaster,and will not call back his words, but will arise against the house of the evildoers,and against the help of those who work iniquity.”
Isaiah 31:2 (WEB)
Context Reading
1Woe to those who go down to Egypt for help,and rely on horses,and trust in chariots because they are many,and in horsemen because they are very strong,but they don’t look to the Holy One of Israel,and they don’t seek Yahweh! 2Yet he also is wise, and will bring disaster,and will not call back his words, but will arise against the house of the evildoers,and against the help of those who work iniquity. 3Now the Egyptians are men, and not God;and their horses flesh, and not spirit.When Yahweh stretches out his hand, both he who helps shall stumble,and he who is helped shall fall,and they all shall be consumed together. 4For Yahweh says to me,“As the lion and the young lion growling over his prey,if a multitude of shepherds is called together against him,will not be dismayed at their voice,nor abase himself for their noise,so Yahweh of Armies will come down to fight on Mount Zion and on its heights.
