ESVEnglish Standard Version

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!

Therefore shall the protection of Pharaoh turn to your shame,

and the shelter in the shadow of Egypt to your humiliation.

For though his officials are at Zoan

and his envoys reach Hanes,

everyone comes to shame

through a people that cannot profit them,

that brings neither help nor profit,

but shame and disgrace.”

CSBChristian Standard Bible

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.

But Pharaoh’s protection will become your shame,

and refuge in Egypt’s shadow your humiliation.

For though his princes are at Zoan

and his messengers reach as far as Hanes,

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.

NLTNew Living Translation

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.

But by trusting Pharaoh, you will be humiliated,

and by depending on him, you will be disgraced.

For though his power extends to Zoan

and his officials have arrived in Hanes,

all who trust in him will be ashamed.

He will not help you.

Instead, he will disgrace you.”

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

Who go to go down to Egypt,

but they do not ask of my mouth,

to take refuge in the protection of Pharaoh

and to take refuge in the shadow of Egypt.

And the protection of Pharaoh shall be shame to you,

and the refuge in the shadow of Egypt, humiliation.

For his officials are at Zoan,

and his envoys reach to Hanes.

Everyone will start to stink because of a people that cannot profit them,

not for help and not for profiting,

but for shame and also for disgrace.”

KJV 1900King James Version

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!

Therefore shall the strength of Pharaoh be your shame,

And the trust in the shadow of Egypt your confusion.

For his princes were at Zoan,

And his ambassadors came to Hanes.

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.
