Isaiah 31:1

Woe to them that 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 look not unto the Holy One of Israel, neither
seek Jehovah! |
|

and against the help of them that work iniquity. |

|
Isaiah 31:3 |

both he that helpeth shall stumble, and he that is helped shall fall, and they
all shall be consumed together. |

Isaiah 31:4 |

For thus saith Jehovah unto me, As the lion
and the young lion growling over his prey, if a multitude of shepherds be called

the noise of them: so will Jehovah of hosts come down to fight upon mount Zion,
and upon the hill thereof. |

his idols of silver, and his idols of gold, which your own hands have made unto
you for a sin. |
