Isaiah 30:2-8
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 30
2
Who proceed down to Egypt
Without consulting Me,
To take refuge in the safety of Pharaoh,
And to seek shelter in the shadow of Egypt!
3
Therefore the safety of Pharaoh will be your shame,
And the shelter in the shadow of Egypt, your humiliation.
4
For their officials are at Zoan
And their ambassadors arrive at Hanes.
5
Everyone will be ashamed because of a people who do not benefit them,
Who are
not a help or benefit, but
a source of
shame and also disgrace.'
6
The pronouncement concerning the animals of the Negev:
Through a land of distress and anguish,
From where
come
lioness and lion, viper and flying serpent,
They carry their riches on the backs of young donkeys,
And their treasures on camels’ humps,
To a people who will not benefit
them;
7
Even Egypt, whose help is vain and empty.
Therefore, I have called her
'Rahab who has been exterminated.'
8
Now go, write it on a tablet in their presence
And inscribe it on a scroll,
That it may serve in the time to come
As a witness forever.
King James Version
Chapter 30
2
That walk to go down into Egypt, and have not asked at my mouth; to strengthen themselves in the strength of Pharaoh, and to trust in the shadow of Egypt!
3
Therefore shall the strength of Pharaoh be your shame, and the trust in the shadow of Egypt your confusion.
4
For his princes were at Zoan, and his ambassadors came to Hanes.
5
They were all ashamed of a people that could not profit them, nor be an help nor profit, but a shame, and also a reproach.
6
The burden of the beasts of the south: into the land of trouble and anguish, from whence come the young and old lion, the viper and fiery flying serpent, they will carry their riches upon the shoulders of young asses, and their treasures upon the bunches of camels, to a people that shall not profit them.
7
For the Egyptians shall help in vain, and to no purpose: therefore have I cried concerning this, Their strength is to sit still.
8
Now go, write it before them in a table, and note it in a book, that it may be for the time to come for ever and ever:
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 30
2
Without asking my advice
they set out to go down to Egypt
in order to seek shelter under Pharaoh’s protection
and take refuge in Egypt’s shadow.
3
But Pharaoh’s protection will become your shame,
and refuge in Egypt’s shadow your humiliation.
4
For though his princes are at Zoan
and his messengers reach as far as Hanes,
5
everyone will be ashamed
because of a people who can’t help.
They are of no benefit, they are no help;
they are good for nothing but shame and disgrace.
6
A pronouncement concerning the animals of the Negev:
Through a land of trouble and distress,
of lioness and lion,
of viper and flying serpent,
they carry their wealth on the backs of donkeys
and their treasures on the humps of camels,
to a people who will not help them.
7
Egypt’s help is completely worthless;
therefore, I call her:
Rahab Who Just Sits.
8
Go now, write it on a tablet in their presence
and inscribe it on a scroll;
it will be for the future,
forever and ever.
New Living Translation
Chapter 30
2
For without consulting me,
you have gone down to Egypt for help.
You have put your trust in Pharaoh’s protection.
You have tried to hide in his shade.
3
But by trusting Pharaoh, you will be humiliated,
and by depending on him, you will be disgraced.
4
For though his power extends to Zoan
and his officials have arrived in Hanes,
5
all who trust in him will be ashamed.
He will not help you.
Instead, he will disgrace you.'
6
This message came to me concerning the animals in the Negev:
The caravan moves slowly
across the terrible desert to Egypt —
donkeys weighed down with riches
and camels loaded with treasure —
all to pay for Egypt’s protection.
They travel through the wilderness,
a place of lionesses and lions,
a place where vipers and poisonous snakes live.
All this, and Egypt will give you nothing in return.
7
Egypt’s promises are worthless!
Therefore, I call her Rahab —
the Harmless Dragon.
8
Now go and write down these words.
Write them in a book.
They will stand until the end of time
as a witness
English Standard Version
Chapter 30
2
who set out to go down to Egypt,
without asking for my direction,
to take refuge in the protection of Pharaoh
and to seek shelter in the shadow of Egypt!
3
Therefore shall the protection of Pharaoh turn to your shame,
and the shelter in the shadow of Egypt to your humiliation.
4
For though his officials are at Zoan
and his envoys reach Hanes,
5
everyone comes to shame
through a people that cannot profit them,
that brings neither help nor profit,
but shame and disgrace."
6
An oracle on the beasts of the Negeb.
Through a land of trouble and anguish,
from where come the lioness and the lion,
the adder and the flying fiery serpent,
they carry their riches on the backs of donkeys,
and their treasures on the humps of camels,
to a people that cannot profit them.
7
Egypt 's help is worthless and empty;
therefore I have called her
"Rahab who sits still."
8
And now, go, write it before them on a tablet
and inscribe it in a book,
that it may be for the time to come
as a witness forever.
New International Version
Chapter 30
2
who go down to Egypt
without consulting me;
who look for help to Pharaoh’s protection,
to Egypt’s shade for refuge.
3
But Pharaoh’s protection will be to your shame,
Egypt’s shade will bring you disgrace.
4
Though they have officials in Zoan
and their envoys have arrived in Hanes,
5
everyone will be put to shame
because of a people useless to them,
who bring neither help nor advantage,
but only shame and disgrace."
6
A prophecy concerning the animals of the Negev:
Through a land of hardship and distress,
of lions and lionesses,
of adders and darting snakes,
the envoys carry their riches on donkeys’ backs,
their treasures on the humps of camels,
to that unprofitable nation,
7
to Egypt, whose help is utterly useless.
Therefore I call her
Rahab the Do-Nothing.
8
Go now, write it on a tablet for them,
inscribe it on a scroll,
that for the days to come
it may be an everlasting witness.
New King James Version
Chapter 30
2
Who walk to go down to Egypt,
And have not asked My advice,
To strengthen themselves in the strength of Pharaoh,
And to trust in the shadow of Egypt!
3
Therefore the strength of Pharaoh
Shall be your shame,
And trust in the shadow of Egypt
Shall be
your
humiliation.
4
For his princes were at Zoan,
And his ambassadors came to Hanes.
5
They were all ashamed of a people
who
could not benefit them,
Or be help or benefit,
But a shame and also a reproach.”
6
The burden against the beasts of the South.
Through a land of trouble and anguish,
From which
came
the lioness and lion,
The viper and fiery flying serpent,
They will carry their riches on the backs of young donkeys,
And their treasures on the humps of camels,
To a people
who
shall not profit;
7
For the Egyptians shall help in vain and to no purpose.
Therefore I have called her
Rahab-Hem-Shebeth.
8
Now go, write it before them on a tablet,
And note it on a scroll,
That it may be for time to come,
Forever and ever:
