Book 23 : ISAIAH - Chapter 019
019:001
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
019:002
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
019:003
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
019:004
And the waters shall fail from the sea, and the river shall be
wasted and dried up
019:005
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
019:006
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
019:007
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
019:008
Moreover they that work in fine flax, and they that weave
networks, shall be confounded
019:009
And they shall be broken in the purposes thereof, all that
make sluices and ponds for fish
019:010
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
019:011
Where are they? where are thy wise men? and let them tell thee
now, and let them know what the LORD of hosts hath purposed
upon Egypt
019:012
The princes of Zoan are become fools, the princes of Noph are
deceived; they have also seduced Egypt, even they that are the
stay of the tribes thereof
019:013
The LORD hath mingled a perverse spirit in the midst thereof:
and they have caused Egypt to err in every work thereof, as a
drunken man staggereth in his vomit
019:014
Neither shall there be any work for Egypt, which the head or
tail, branch or rush, may do
019:015
In that day shall Egypt be like unto women: and it shall be
afraid and fear because of the shaking of the hand of the LORD
of hosts, which he shaketh over it
019:016
And the land of Judah shall be a terror unto Egypt, every one
that maketh mention thereof shall be afraid in himself,
because of the counsel of the LORD of hosts, which he hath
determined against it
019:017
In that day shall five cities in the land of Egypt speak the
language of Canaan, and swear to the LORD of hosts; one shall
be called, The city of destruction
019:018
In that day shall there be an altar to the LORD in the midst
of the land of Egypt, and a pillar at the border thereof to
the LORD
019:019
And it shall be for a sign and for a witness unto the LORD of
hosts in the land of Egypt: for they shall cry unto the LORD
because of the oppressors, and he shall send them a saviour,
and a great one, and he shall deliver them
019:020
And the LORD shall be known to Egypt, and the Egyptians shall
know the LORD in that day, and shall do sacrifice and
oblation; yea, they shall vow a vow unto the LORD, and perform
it
019:021
And the LORD shall smite Egypt: he shall smite and heal it:
and they shall return even to the LORD, and he shall be
intreated of them, and shall heal them
019:022
In that day shall there be a highway out of Egypt to Assyria,
and the Assyrian shall come into Egypt, and the Egyptian into
Assyria, and the Egyptians shall serve with the Assyrians
019:023
In that day shall Israel be the third with Egypt and with
Assyria, even a blessing in the midst of the land
019:024
Whom the LORD of hosts shall bless, saying, Blessed be Egypt
my people, and Assyria the work of my hands, and Israel mine
inheritance
