Isaiah 19:9-11
International Standard Version
Isaiah 19:9-11
International Standard Version
9 The workers[a] in combed flax
and the weavers of white linen
will be in despair.
10 Egypt’s[b] workers in cloth[c] will be crushed,
and all who work for wages will be sick at heart.”
A Rebuke to Egypt’s Leaders
11 Zoan’s princes are nothing but fools;
the wisest advisors of Pharaoh give stupid advice.
How can you say to Pharaoh,
“I’m a descendant of wise men,
a descendant of ancient kings”?
