Reference: Isaiah 31:1-5; (KJV)<br>
<br>Isaiah 31:1-5<br><p class="p"><br><span data-number="1" data-sid="ISA 31:1" class="v">1</span> Woe to them that go down to Egypt for help; and stay on horses, and trust in chariots, because <span class="add">they are</span> many; and in horsemen, because they are very strong; but they look not unto the Holy One of Israel, neither seek the <span class="nd">LORD</span> ! <br><span data-number="2" data-sid="ISA 31:2" class="v">2</span> Yet he also <span class="add">is</span> wise, and will bring evil, and will not call back his words: but will arise against the house of the evildoers, and against the help of them that work iniquity. <br><span data-number="3" data-sid="ISA 31:3" class="v">3</span> Now the Egyptians <span class="add">are</span> men, and not God; and their horses flesh, and not spirit. When the <span class="nd">LORD</span> shall stretch out his hand, both he that helpeth shall fall, and he that is holpen shall fall down, and they all shall fail together. <br><span data-number="4" data-sid="ISA 31:4" class="v">4</span> For thus hath the <span class="nd">LORD</span> spoken unto me, Like as the lion and the young lion roaring on his prey, when a multitude of shepherds is called forth against him, <span class="add">he</span> will not be afraid of their voice, nor abase himself for the noise of them: so shall the <span class="nd">LORD</span> of hosts come down to fight for mount Zion, and for the hill thereof. <br><span data-number="5" data-sid="ISA 31:5" class="v">5</span> As birds flying, so will the <span class="nd">LORD</span> of hosts defend Jerusalem; defending also he will deliver <span class="add">it; and</span> passing over he will preserve it.</p>
