Isaiah 19:14-16

Easy-to-Read Version

¹⁴ The Lord confused them, so they wander around and lead Egypt the wrong way. Everything they do is wrong. They are like drunks rolling in their vomit. ¹⁵ There is nothing the leaders can do. (They are “the heads and the tails.” They are “the tops and the stalks of plants.”^[a])

¹⁶ At that time the Egyptians will be like frightened women. They will be afraid of the Lord All-Powerful, because he will raise his arm to punish the people.
