Isaiah 19:3-17
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 19
3
Then the spirit of the Egyptians will be demoralized within them;
And I will confuse their strategy,
So that they will resort to idols and ghosts of the dead,
And to mediums and spiritists.
4
Furthermore, I will hand the Egyptians over to a cruel master,
And a mighty king will rule over them,' declares the Lord
God
of armies.
5
The waters from the sea will dry up,
And the river will be parched and dry.
6
The canals will emit a stench,
The streams of Egypt will thin out and dry up;
The reeds and rushes will rot away.
7
The bulrushes by the Nile, by the edge of the Nile
And all the sown fields by the Nile
Will become dry, be driven away, and be no more.
8
And the fishermen will grieve,
And all those who cast a line into the Nile will mourn,
And those who spread nets on the waters will dwindle away.
9
Moreover, the manufacturers of linen made from combed flax
And the weavers of white cloth will be utterly dejected.
10
And the pillars
of Egypt
will be crushed;
All the hired laborers will be grieved in soul.
11
The officials of Zoan are mere fools;
The advice of Pharaoh’s wisest advisers has become stupid.
How can you say to Pharaoh,
'I am a son of the wise, a son of ancient kings'?
12
Well then, where are your wise men?
Please let them tell you,
And let them understand what the
Lord
of armies
Has planned against Egypt.
13
The officials of Zoan have turned out to be fools,
The officials of Memphis are deluded;
Those who are
the cornerstone of her tribes
Have led Egypt astray.
14
The
Lord
has mixed within her a spirit of distortion;
They have led Egypt astray in all that it does,
As a drunken person staggers in his vomit.
15
There will be no work for Egypt
Which
its
head or tail,
its
palm branch or bulrush, may do.
16
On that day the Egyptians will become like women, and they will tremble and be in great fear because of the waving of the hand of the
Lord
of armies, which He is going to wave over them.
17
The land of Judah will become a cause of shame to Egypt; everyone to whom it is mentioned will be in great fear because of the plan of the
Lord
of armies which He is making against them.
King James Version
Chapter 19
3
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.
4
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.
5
And the waters shall fail from the sea, and the river shall be wasted and dried up.
6
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.
7
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.
8
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.
9
Moreover they that work in fine flax, and they that weave networks, shall be confounded.
10
And they shall be broken in the purposes thereof, all that make sluices and ponds for fish.
11
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?
12
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.
13
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.
14
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.
15
Neither shall there be any work for Egypt, which the head or tail, branch or rush, may do.
16
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.
17
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.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 19
3
Egypt’s spirit will be disturbed within it,
and I will frustrate its plans.
Then they will inquire of idols, ghosts,
and spiritists.
4
I will hand over Egypt to harsh masters,
and a strong king will rule it. This is the declaration of the Lord
God
of Armies.
5
The water of the sea will dry up,
and the river will be parched and dry.
6
The channels will stink;
they will dwindle, and Egypt’s canals will be parched.
Reed and rush will wilt.
7
The reeds by the Nile, by the mouth of the river,
and all the cultivated areas of the Nile
will wither, blow away, and vanish.
8
Then the fishermen will mourn.
All those who cast hooks into the Nile will lament,
and those who spread nets on the water will give up.
9
Those who work with flax will be dismayed;
those combing it and weaving linen will turn pale.
10
Egypt’s weavers will be dejected;
all her wage earners will be demoralized.
11
The princes of Zoan are complete fools;
Pharaoh’s wisest advisers give stupid advice!
How can you say to Pharaoh,
"I am one of the wise,
a student of eastern kings"?
12
Where then are your wise men?
Let them tell you and reveal
what the
Lord
of Armies has planned against Egypt.
13
The princes of Zoan have been fools;
the princes of Memphis are deceived.
Her tribal chieftains have led Egypt astray.
14
The
Lord
has mixed within her a spirit of confusion.
The leaders have made Egypt stagger in all she does,
as a drunkard staggers in his vomit.
15
No head or tail, palm or reed,
will be able to do anything for Egypt.
16
On that day Egypt will be like women and will tremble with fear because of the threatening hand of the
Lord
of Armies when he raises it against them.
17
The land of Judah will terrify Egypt; whenever Judah is mentioned, Egypt will tremble because of what the
Lord
of Armies has planned against it.
New Living Translation
Chapter 19
3
The Egyptians will lose heart,
and I will confuse their plans.
They will plead with their idols for wisdom
and call on spirits, mediums, and those who consult the spirits of the dead.
4
I will hand Egypt over
to a hard, cruel master.
A fierce king will rule them,'
says the Lord, the
Lord
of Heaven’s Armies.
5
The waters of the Nile will fail to rise and flood the fields.
The riverbed will be parched and dry.
6
The canals of the Nile will dry up,
and the streams of Egypt will stink
with rotting reeds and rushes.
7
All the greenery along the riverbank
and all the crops along the river
will dry up and blow away.
8
The fishermen will lament for lack of work.
Those who cast hooks into the Nile will groan,
and those who use nets will lose heart.
9
There will be no flax for the harvesters,
no thread for the weavers.
10
They will be in despair,
and all the workers will be sick at heart.
11
What fools are the officials of Zoan!
Their best counsel to the king of Egypt is stupid and wrong.
Will they still boast to Pharaoh of their wisdom?
Will they dare brag about all their wise ancestors?
12
Where are your wise counselors, Pharaoh?
Let them tell you what God plans,
what the
Lord
of Heaven’s Armies is going to do to Egypt.
13
The officials of Zoan are fools,
and the officials of Memphis are deluded.
The leaders of the people
have led Egypt astray.
14
The
Lord
has sent a spirit of foolishness on them,
so all their suggestions are wrong.
They cause Egypt to stagger
like a drunk in his vomit.
15
There is nothing Egypt can do.
All are helpless —
the head and the tail,
the noble palm branch and the lowly reed.
16
In that day the Egyptians will be as weak as women. They will cower in fear beneath the upraised fist of the
Lord
of Heaven’s Armies.
17
Just to speak the name of Israel will terrorize them, for the
Lord
of Heaven’s Armies has laid out his plans against them.
English Standard Version
Chapter 19
3
and the spirit of the Egyptians within them will be emptied out,
and I will confound their counsel;
and they will inquire of the idols and the sorcerers,
and the mediums and the necromancers;
4
and I will give over the Egyptians
into the hand of a hard master,
and a fierce king will rule over them,
declares the Lord
God
of hosts.
5
And the waters of the sea will be dried up,
and the river will be dry and parched,
6
and its canals will become foul,
and the branches of Egypt 's Nile will diminish and dry up,
reeds and rushes will rot away.
7
There will be bare places by the Nile,
on the brink of the Nile,
and all that is sown by the Nile will be parched,
will be driven away, and will be no more.
8
The fishermen will mourn and lament,
all who cast a hook in the Nile;
and they will languish
who spread nets on the water.
9
The workers in combed flax will be in despair,
and the weavers of white cotton.
10
Those who are the pillars of the land will be crushed,
and all who work for pay will be grieved.
11
The princes of Zoan are utterly foolish;
the wisest counselors of Pharaoh give stupid counsel.
How can you say to Pharaoh,
"I am a son of the wise,
a son of ancient kings"?
12
Where then are your wise men?
Let them tell you
that they might know what the
Lord
of hosts has purposed against Egypt.
13
The princes of Zoan have become fools,
and the princes of Memphis are deluded;
those who are the cornerstones of her tribes
have made Egypt stagger.
14
The
Lord
has mingled within her a spirit of confusion,
and they will make Egypt stagger in all its deeds,
as a drunken man staggers in his vomit.
15
And there will be nothing for Egypt
that head or tail, palm branch or reed, may do.
16
In that day the Egyptians will be like women, and tremble with fear before the hand that the
Lord
of hosts shakes over them.
17
And the land of Judah will become a terror to the Egyptians. Everyone to whom it is mentioned will fear because of the purpose that the
Lord
of hosts has purposed against them.
New International Version
Chapter 19
3
The Egyptians will lose heart,
and I will bring their plans to nothing;
they will consult the idols and the spirits of the dead,
the mediums and the spiritists.
4
I will hand the Egyptians over
to the power of a cruel master,
and a fierce king will rule over them,"
declares the Lord, the
Lord
Almighty.
5
The waters of the river will dry up,
and the riverbed will be parched and dry.
6
The canals will stink;
the streams of Egypt will dwindle and dry up.
The reeds and rushes will wither,
7
also the plants along the Nile,
at the mouth of the river.
Every sown field along the Nile
will become parched, will blow away and be no more.
8
The fishermen will groan and lament,
all who cast hooks into the Nile;
those who throw nets on the water
will pine away.
9
Those who work with combed flax will despair,
the weavers of fine linen will lose hope.
10
The workers in cloth will be dejected,
and all the wage earners will be sick at heart.
11
The officials of Zoan are nothing but fools;
the wise counselors of Pharaoh give senseless advice.
How can you say to Pharaoh,
"I am one of the wise men,
a disciple of the ancient kings"?
12
Where are your wise men now?
Let them show you and make known
what the
Lord
Almighty
has planned against Egypt.
13
The officials of Zoan have become fools,
the leaders of Memphis are deceived;
the cornerstones of her peoples
have led Egypt astray.
14
The
Lord
has poured into them
a spirit of dizziness;
they make Egypt stagger in all that she does,
as a drunkard staggers around in his vomit.
15
There is nothing Egypt can do—
head or tail, palm branch or reed.
16
In that day the Egyptians will become weaklings. They will shudder with fear at the uplifted hand that the
Lord
Almighty raises against them.
17
And the land of Judah will bring terror to the Egyptians; everyone to whom Judah is mentioned will be terrified, because of what the
Lord
Almighty is planning against them.
New King James Version
Chapter 19
3
The spirit of Egypt will fail in its midst;
I will destroy their counsel,
And they will consult the idols and the charmers,
The mediums and the sorcerers.
4
And the Egyptians I will give
Into the hand of a cruel master,
And a fierce king will rule over them,”
Says the Lord, the
Lord
of hosts.
5
The waters will fail from the sea,
And the river will be wasted and dried up.
6
The rivers will turn foul;
The brooks of defense will be emptied and dried up;
The reeds and rushes will wither.
7
The papyrus reeds by the River, by the mouth of the River,
And everything sown by the River,
Will wither, be driven away, and be no more.
8
The fishermen also will mourn;
All those will lament who cast hooks into the River,
And they will languish who spread nets on the waters.
9
Moreover those who work in fine flax
And those who weave fine fabric will be ashamed;
10
And its foundations will be broken.
All who make wages
will be
troubled of soul.
11
Surely the princes of Zoan
are
fools;
Pharaoh’s wise counselors give foolish counsel.
How do you say to Pharaoh, “I
am
the son of the wise,
The son of ancient kings?”
12
Where
are
they?
Where are your wise men?
Let them tell you now,
And let them know what the

of hosts has purposed against Egypt.
13
The princes of Zoan have become fools;
The princes of Noph are deceived;
They have also deluded Egypt,
Those who are
the mainstay of its tribes.
14
The
Lord
has mingled a perverse spirit in her midst;
And they have caused Egypt to err in all her work,
As a drunken man staggers in his vomit.
15
Neither will there be
any

Which the head or tail,
Palm branch or bulrush, may do.
16
In that day Egypt will be like women, and will be afraid and fear because of the waving of the hand of the
Lord

17
And the land of Judah will be a terror to Egypt; everyone who makes mention of it will be afraid in himself, because of the counsel of the
Lord
of hosts which He has determined against it.
