¹¹ The leaders of Zoan are fools!
    And those who count themselves among the Pharaoh’s smartest counselors
Base their advice on bizarre flights of fancy.
    How can you tell Pharaoh,
“I am among the long line of Egypt’s wise and an heir of ancient kings”?
¹² I certainly don’t see any such sages. If they’re here,
    they should be able to tell you
    what the Eternal One, Commander of heavenly armies, has in store for Egypt.
¹³ The elite, the nobles from the northern delta south to bustling Memphis,
    have been overconfident, deluded fools.
These cornerstones of society have led Egypt in the wrong direction,
    and Egypt pays the price.
