Isaiah 19 :: Legacy Standard Bible (LSB)

The [fn]oracle ^H4853 concerning Egypt ^H4714.

Behold ^H2009, Yahweh ^H3068 is riding ^H7392 on a swift ^H7031 cloud ^H5645 and is about to come ^H935 to Egypt ^H4714;

The idols ^H457 of Egypt ^H4714 will shake ^H5128 at His presence ^H6440,

And the heart ^H3824 of the Egyptians ^H4714 will melt ^H4549 within ^H7130 them.

“So I will incite ^H5526 Egyptians ^H4714 against Egyptians ^H4714;

And they will each ^H376 fight ^H3898 against his brother ^H251 and each ^H376 against his neighbor ^H7453,

City ^H5892 against city ^H5892 and kingdom ^H4467 against kingdom ^H4467.

“Then the spirit ^H7307 of the Egyptians ^H4714 will be emptied ^H1238 to destruction ^H1238 within ^H7130 them;

And I will confuse ^H1104 their counsel ^H6098,

So that they will seek ^H1875 idols ^H457 and ghosts ^H328 of ^H328 the ^H328 dead ^H328

And to [fn]mediums ^H178 and spiritists ^H3049.

“Moreover, I will deliver ^H5534 the Egyptians ^H4714 into the hand ^H3027 of a cruel ^H7186 master ^H113,

And a [fn]strong ^H5794 king ^H4428 will rule ^H4910 over them,” declares ^H5002 the Lord ^H136, Yahweh ^H3068 of hosts ^H6635.

The waters ^H4325 from the sea ^H3220 will dry ^H5405 up,

And the river ^H5104 will be parched ^H2717 and dry ^H3001.

The rivers ^H5104 will emit ^H2186 a ^H2186 stench ^H2186,

The [fn]streams ^H2975 of Egypt ^H4693 will thin ^H1809 out ^H1809 and dry ^H2717 up ^H2717;

The reeds ^H7070 and rushes ^H5488 will rot ^H7060 away ^H7060.

The bulrushes ^H6169 by the Nile ^H2975, by the [fn]edge ^H6310 of the Nile ^H2975

And all ^H3605 the sown ^H4218 fields ^H4218 by the Nile ^H2975

Will become ^H3001 dry ^H3001, be driven ^H5086 away ^H5086, and be no ^H369 more ^H369.

And the fishermen ^H1728 will lament ^H578,

And all ^H3605 those who cast ^H7993 a [fn]line ^H2443 into the Nile ^H2975 will mourn ^H56,

And those who spread ^H6566 nets ^H4365 on the waters ^H4325 will [fn]languish ^H535.

Moreover, the manufacturers ^H5647 of linen ^H6593 made from combed ^H8305 flax ^H8305

And the weavers ^H707 of white ^H2355 cloth ^H2355 will be ^H954 ashamed ^H954.

And [fn]the pillars ^H8356 of Egypt will be crushed ^H1792;

All ^H3605 the hired ^H7938 laborers ^H6213 will be grieved ^H99 in soul ^H5315.

The princes ^H8269 of [fn]Zoan ^H6814 are merely ^H389 ignorant ^H191 fools ^H191;

The counsel ^H6098 of Pharaoh’s ^H6547 wisest ^H2450 counselors ^H3289 has become ^H1197 [fn]senseless ^H1197.

How ^H349 can you men say ^H559 to Pharaoh ^H6547,

“I am a son ^H1121 of the wise ^H2450, a son ^H1121 of the kings ^H4428 of old ^H6924”?

Well ^H645 then ^H645, where ^H335 are your wise ^H2450 men ^H2450?

Please ^H4994 let them tell ^H5046 you,

And let them [fn]understand ^H3045 what ^H4100 Yahweh ^H3068 of hosts ^H6635

Has counseled ^H3289 against ^H5921 Egypt ^H4714.

The princes ^H8269 of [fn]Zoan ^H6814 have acted ^H2973 as ^H2973 ignorant ^H2973 fools ^H2973,

The princes ^H8269 of Memphis ^H5297 are deluded ^H5378;

Those who are the cornerstone ^H6438 of her tribes ^H7626

[fn]Have led ^H8582 Egypt ^H4714 astray ^H8582.

Yahweh ^H3068 has mixed ^H4537 within ^H7130 her a spirit ^H7307 of distortion ^H5773;

They have led ^H8582 Egypt ^H4714 astray ^H8582 in all ^H3605 [fn]that it does ^H4639,

As a drunken ^H7910 man ^H7910 [fn]strays ^H8582 into his vomit ^H6892.

There will be no ^H3808 work ^H4639 for Egypt ^H4714

Which ^H834 its head ^H7218 or tail ^H2180, its palm ^H3712 branch ^H3712 or bulrush ^H100, may do ^H6213.

In that day ^H3117 the Egyptians ^H4714 will become ^H1961 like women ^H802, and they will tremble ^H2729 and be ^H6342 in ^H6342 dread ^H6342 because ^H4480 H6440 of the waving ^H5130 of the hand ^H3027 of Yahweh ^H3068 of hosts ^H6635, which ^H834 He is going to wave ^H5130 over ^H5921 them.

In that day ^H3117 five ^H2568 cities ^H5892 in the land ^H776 of Egypt ^H4714 will be speaking ^H1696 the language ^H8193 of Canaan ^H3667 and swearing ^H7650 allegiance to Yahweh ^H3068 of hosts ^H6635; one ^H259 will be called ^H559 the City ^H5892 of [fn]Destruction ^H2041.

In that day ^H3117 there will be an altar ^H4196 to Yahweh ^H3068 in the midst ^H8432 of the land ^H776 of Egypt ^H4714, and a pillar ^H4676 to Yahweh ^H3068 near ^H681 its border ^H1366.

In that day ^H3117 there will be a highway ^H4546 from Egypt ^H4714 to Assyria ^H804, and the Assyrians ^H804 will come ^H935 into Egypt ^H4714 and the Egyptians ^H4714 into Assyria ^H804, and the Egyptians ^H4714 will worship ^H5647 with the Assyrians ^H804.

In that day ^H3117 Israel ^H3478 will be the third ^H7992 party with Egypt ^H4714 and Assyria ^H804, a blessing ^H1293 in the midst ^H7130 of the earth ^H776,
