Woe to Those Who Trust Egypt

31 Woe to those who go down to Egypt for help,
    and rely on horses,
and trust in chariots because they are many,
    and in horsemen because they are very strong,
but they do not look to the Holy One of Israel
    nor seek the Lord!
Yet He also is wise and will bring disaster
    and will not call back His words,
but will arise against the house of the evildoers
    and against the help of those who work iniquity.
Now the Egyptians are men and not God;
    and their horses flesh and not spirit.
When the Lord shall stretch out His hand,
    both he who helps shall fall
    and he who is helped shall fall down,
    and they all shall fail together.

31 Woe to them that go down to Egypt for help, and depend upon horses and trust in chariots because they are many, and in horsemen because they are very strong, but they look not unto the Holy One of Israel, neither seek the Lord!

Yet He also is 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.

Now the Egyptians are men, and not God; and their horses flesh, and not spirit. When the Lord shall stretch out His hand, both he that helpeth shall fall and he that is helped shall fall down, and they all shall fail together.
