11The princes of 1aZoan are mere fools;
The advice of Pharaoh’s wisest advisers has become 2stupid.
How can you men say to Pharaoh,
“I am a son of the bwise, a son of ancient kings”?
12Well then, where are your wise men?
Please let them tell you,
And let them 1understand what the Lord of hosts
Has apurposed against Egypt.

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?

Let them tell you what God plans,
what the Lord of Heaven’s Armies is going to do to Egypt.
