¹⁶ therefore thus says the Lord God,
^(A)“Behold, I am the one who has laid^[a] as a foundation ^(B)in Zion,
    a stone, a tested stone,
a precious cornerstone, of a sure foundation:
    ‘Whoever believes will not be in haste.’

⁷ Egypt's ^(A)help is worthless and empty;
    therefore I have called her
    ^(B)“Rahab who sits still.”
