Isaiah 19:1-20

19:1

The burden
<04853>

of Egypt
<04714>_.

Behold, the LORD
<03068>

rideth
<07392> (8802)

upon a swift
<07031>

cloud
<05645>_,

and shall come
<0935> (8804)

into Egypt
<04714>_:

and the idols
<0457>

of Egypt
<04714>

shall be moved
<05128> (8804)

at his presence
<06440>_,

and the heart
<03824>

of Egypt
<04714>

shall melt
<04549> (8735)

in the midst
<07130>

of it.

19:2

And I will set
<05526> (8773)

the Egyptians
<04714>

against the Egyptians
<04714>_:

and they shall fight
<03898> (8738)

every one
<0376>

against his brother
<0251>_,

and every one
<0376>

against his neighbour
<07453>_;

city
<05892>

against city
<05892>_,

[and] kingdom
<04467>

<04467>_.

{set: Heb. mingle}

19:3

And the spirit
<07307>

of Egypt
<04714>

shall fail
<01238> (8738)

in the midst
<07130>

thereof; and I will destroy
<01104> (8762)

the counsel
<06098>

thereof: and they shall seek
<01875> (8804)

to the idols
<0457>_,

and to the charmers
<0328>_,

and to them that have familiar spirits
<0178>_,

and to the wizards
<03049>_.

{fail: Heb. be emptied} {destroy: Heb. swallow up}

And
<0853>

the Egyptians
<04714>

will I give over
<05534> (8765)

into the hand
<03027>

of a cruel
<07186>

lord
<0113>_;

and a fierce
<05794>

king
<04428>

shall rule
<04910> (8799)

over them, saith
<05002> (8803)

the Lord
<0113>_,

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_.

{give...: or, shut up}

19:5

And the waters
<04325>

shall fail
<05405> (8738)

from the sea
<03220>_,

and the river
<05104>

shall be wasted
<02717> (8799)

and dried up
<03001> (8804)_.

19:6

And they shall turn
<02186> (0)

the rivers
<05104>

far away
<02186> (8689)_;

[and] the brooks
<02975>

of defence
<04693>

shall be emptied
<01809> (8804)

and dried up
<02717> (8804)_:

the reeds
<07070>

and flags
<05488>

shall wither
<07060> (8804)_.

19:7

The paper reeds
<06169>

by the brooks
<02975>_,

by the mouth
<06310>

of the brooks
<02975>_,

and every thing sown
<04218>

by the brooks
<02975>_,

shall wither
<03001> (8799)_,

be driven away
<05086> (8738)_,

and be no [more]. {and be...: Heb. and shall not be}

19:8

The fishers
<01771>

also shall mourn
<0578> (8804)_,

and all they that cast
<07993> (8688)

angle
<02443>

into the brooks
<02975>

shall lament
<056> (8804)_,

and they that spread
<06566> (8802)

nets
<04365>

upon
<06440>

the waters
<04325>

shall languish
<0535> (8797)_.

19:9

Moreover they that work
<05647> (8802)

in fine
<08305>

flax
<06593>_,

and they that weave
<0707> (8802)

networks
<02355>_,

shall be confounded
<0954> (8804)_.

{networks: or, white works}

19:10

And they shall be broken
<01792> (8794)

in the purposes
<08356>

thereof, all that make
<06213> (8802)

sluices
<07938>

[and] ponds
<099>

for fish
<05315>_.

{purposes: Heb. foundations} {for fish: Heb. of living things}

19:11

Surely the princes
<08269>

of Zoan
<06814>

[are] fools
<0191>_,

the counsel
<06098>

of the wise
<02450>

counsellors
<03289> (8802)

of Pharaoh
<06547>

is become brutish
<01197> (8737)_:

how say
<0559> (8799)

ye unto Pharaoh
<06547>_,

I [am] the son
<01121>

of the wise
<02450>_,

the son
<01121>

of ancient
<06924>

kings
<04428>_?

19:12

Where
<0335>

[are] they? where
<0645>

[are] thy wise
<02450>

[men]? and let them tell
<05046> (8686)

thee now, and let them know
<03045> (8799)

what the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>

hath purposed
<03289> (8804)

upon Egypt
<04714>_.

19:13

The princes
<08269>

of Zoan
<06814>

are become fools
<02973> (8738)_,

the princes
<08269>

of Noph
<05297>

are deceived
<05377> (8738)_;

they have also seduced
<08582> (8689)

Egypt
<04714>_,

[even they that are] the stay
<06438>

of the tribes
<07626>

thereof. {they that...: or, governors: Heb. corners}

19:14

The LORD
<03068>

hath mingled
<04537> (8804)

a perverse
<05773>

spirit
<07307>

in the midst
<07130>

thereof: and they have caused Egypt
<04714>

to err
<08582> (8689)

in every work
<04639>

thereof, as a drunken
<07910>

[man] staggereth
<08582> (8736)

in his vomit
<06892>_.

{a perverse...: Heb. a spirit of perversities}

19:15

Neither shall there be [any] work
<04639>

for Egypt
<04714>_,

which the head
<07218>

or tail
<02180>_,

branch
<03712>

or rush
<0100>_,

may do
<06213> (8799)_.

19:16

In that day
<03117>

shall Egypt
<04714>

be like unto women
<0802>_:

and it shall be afraid
<02729> (8804)

and fear
<06342> (8804)

because
<06440>

of the shaking
<08573>

of the hand
<03027>

of the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

which he shaketh
<05130> (8688)

over it.

19:17

And the land
<0127>

of Judah
<03063>

shall be a terror
<02283>

unto Egypt
<04714>_,

every one that maketh mention
<02142> (8686)

thereof shall be afraid
<06342> (8799)

in himself, because
<06440>

of the counsel
<06098>

of the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

which he hath determined
<03289> (8802)

against it.

19:18

In that day
<03117>

shall five
<02568>

cities
<05892>

in the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>

speak
<01696> (8764)

the language
<08193>

of Canaan
<03667>_,

and swear
<07650> (8737)

to the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_;

one
<0259>

shall be called
<0559> (8735)_,

The city
<05892>

of destruction
<02041>_.

{the language: Heb. the lip} {of destruction: or, of Heres, or, of the sun}

19:19

In that day
<03117>

shall there be an altar
<04196>

to the LORD
<03068>

in the midst
<08432>

of the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_,

and a pillar
<04676>

at
<0681>

the border
<01366>

thereof to the LORD
<03068>_.

19:20

And it shall be for a sign
<0226>

and for a witness
<05707>

unto the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>

in the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_:

for they shall cry
<06817> (8799)

unto the LORD
<03068>

because
<06440>

of the oppressors
<03905> (8801)_,

and he shall send
<07971> (8799)

them a saviour
<03467> (8688)_,

and a great one
<07227>_,

and he shall deliver
<05337> (8689)

them.
