Isaiah 30:6-8

The Voice

⁶ A message about the beasts of the Negev:
    Nevertheless, the Judeans go down to Egypt,
Crossing through a land of trouble and anguish,
    tracked by lionesses and lions, in danger of vipers and poisonous snakes,
All their precious valuables packed on the backs of donkeys and camels.
    They look to a people who can offer them nothing.

⁷ Eternal One: Egypt’s help is no help at all.
        Therefore I call Egypt “Rahab”—a storm that just sits there.

⁸ So, go on—write all this down on a tablet in their presence;
    inscribe it on a scroll as a permanent record
So people will know about it forever.
