彼嘗以古實為望、以埃及為榮、必皆驚懼慚怍、

昔瀕海之民、惟埃及是誇、古實是恃、後必蒙羞而懹恐、曰、我素望彼、得救於亞述王、今彼敗亡、我何能免於難哉。

凡恃古實誇伊及者、或作凡仰望古實倚恃伊及為榮者必皆恐懼慚愧、

Those who trusted in Cush and boasted in Egypt will be dismayed and put to shame.

People trusted in Cush to help them. They bragged about what Egypt could do for them. But they will lose heart and be put to shame.

Then they shall be dismayed and ashamed because of Cush their hope and of Egypt their boast.

Then the Philistines will be thrown into panic, for they counted on the power of Ethiopia and boasted of their allies in Egypt!

Those who made Cush their hope and Egypt their boast will be dismayed and ashamed.

Then they will be terrified and ashamed because of Cush their hope and Egypt their pride.

Then they shall be afraid and ashamed of Ethiopia their expectation and Egypt their glory.

And they shall be dismayed and confounded, because of Ethiopia their expectation, and of Egypt their glory.

And they shall be afraid and ashamed of Ethiopia their expectation, and of Egypt their glory.

They will be dismayed and confounded, because of Ethiopia their expectation, and of Egypt their glory.

But Pharaoh’s protection will bring you nothing but shame, and the safety of Egypt’s protective shade nothing but humiliation.

all will be put to shame because of a nation that cannot help them, who cannot give them aid or help, but only shame and disgrace.”

The LORD says,“ I will put a curse on people who trust in mere human beings, who depend on mere flesh and blood for their strength, and whose hearts have turned away from the LORD.

The LORD says,“ Wise people should not boast that they are wise. Powerful people should not boast that they are powerful. Rich people should not boast that they are rich.If people want to boast, they should boast about this: They should boast that they understand and know me. They should boast that they know and understand that I, the LORD, act out of faithfulness, fairness, and justice in the earth and that I desire people to do these things,” says the LORD.

So then, no more boasting about mere mortals! For everything belongs to you,

Now look, you must be trusting in Egypt, that splintered reed staff. If a man leans for support on it, it punctures his hand and wounds him. That is what Pharaoh king of Egypt does to all who trust in him.

Then all those living in Egypt will know that I am the LORD because they were a reed staff for the house of Israel;when they grasped you with their hand, you broke and tore their shoulders, and when they leaned on you, you splintered and caused their legs to be unsteady.

Stop trusting in human beings, whose life’s breath is in their nostrils. For why should they be given special consideration?

Egypt is totally incapable of helping. For this reason I call her‘ Proud one who is silenced.’”

Look, you must be trusting in Egypt, that splintered reed staff. If someone leans on it for support, it punctures his hand and wounds him. That is what Pharaoh king of Egypt does to all who trust in him!
