The LORD, the Only Help

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 31:1 -

Woe to those who go down to Egypt for help

and who depend on horses!

They trust in the abundance of chariots

and in the large number of horsemen.

They do not look to the Holy One of Israel,

and they do not seek the LORD.

and against the allies of evildoers.

and the one who is helped will fall;

both will perish together.

For this is what the LORD said to me:

As a lion or young lion growls over its prey

when a band of shepherds is called out against it,

and it is not terrified by their shouting

or subdued by their noise,

so the LORD of Armies will come down

to fight on Mount Zion

and on its hill.

Then Assyria will fall,

His rock[fn] will pass away because of fear,

and his officers will be afraid because of the signal flag.

This is the LORD’s declaration ​— ​whose fire is in Zion and whose furnace is in Jerusalem.
