Isaiah 19:11–17

11  Surely the princes of uZoan are fools,

The counsel of the wise counsellers of Pharaoh vis become brutish:

How say ye unto Pharaoh, vvI am the son of the wise,

wThe son of ancient kings?

12  xWhere 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 uZoan are become fools,

xThe princes of yNoph are deceived;

They have also zseduced 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 zcaused Egypt to err in every work thereof,

aAs a drunken man zstaggereth in his vomit.

15  Neither shall there be any work for Egypt,

Which bthe head or tail, bbranch or rush, may do.

16  cIn that day shall Egypt dbe like unto women:

And it shall be afraid and fear

Because of ethe shaking of the hand of the Lord of hosts,

eWhich 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.
