Strong's Number H8269 matches the Hebrew שַׂר (śar),
which occurs 17 times in 16 verses in 'Isa'
in the WLC Hebrew.
Your rulers are rebels
And companions of thieves;
Everyone loves bribes
And chases after gifts.
They do not defend the fatherless,
Nor does the widow’s cause come before them [instead they delay or turn a deaf ear].
The captain of fifty and the man of honor,
The counselor and the expert artisan,
And the skillful enchanter.
And I will make mere boys their princes,
And capricious (impulsive, unpredictable) children will rule over them.
The LORD enters into judgment with the elders of His people and their princes,
“For it is you who have devoured the vineyard [with your oppression, you have robbed the people and ruined the country];
The plunder of the poor is in your houses.
For to us a Child shall be born, to us a Son shall be given;
And the government shall be upon His shoulder,
And His name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
The princes of [fn]Zoan are complete fools;
The counsel of the Pharaoh’s wisest advisors has become stupid.
How can you say to Pharaoh,
“I am a son of the wise, a son of ancient kings?”
The princes of Zoan have acted like fools,
The princes of Memphis are deluded [and entertain false hope];
Those who are the cornerstone of her tribes
Have led Egypt astray.
They set the table [for the doomed banquet], they spread out the cloth, they eat, they drink;
“Rise up, captains [of Belshazzar’s court], oil your shields [for battle, for your enemy is at the gates]!”
Who has planned this against Tyre, the bestower of crowns,
Whose merchants were princes, whose traders were the honored of the earth?
“His rock [his stronghold] will pass away because of panic,
And his princes will be terrified at the [sight of the battle] standard,”
Declares the LORD, whose fire is in Zion and whose furnace is in Jerusalem.
Its nobles—there is no one there
Whom they may proclaim king—
And all its princes will be nothing.
“So I will [fn]profane the officials of the sanctuary,
And I will consign Jacob to destruction and [I will subject] Israel to defamation and abuse.
This is what the LORD, the Redeemer of Israel, Israel’s Holy One says,
To the thoroughly despised One,
To the One hated by the nation
To the Servant of rulers,
“[fn]Kings will see and arise,
Princes shall also bow down,
Because of the LORD who is faithful, the Holy One of Israel who has chosen You.”
