Isaiah 31:3-5
Darby Translation
Isaiah 31:3-5
Darby Translation
3 And the Egyptians are men, and not God, and their horses flesh, and not spirit; and Jehovah shall stretch forth his hand, and he that helpeth shall stumble, and he that is helped shall fall, and they all shall perish together.
4 For thus hath Jehovah said unto me: Like as the lion and the young lion growling over his prey, when a multitude of shepherds is called forth against him, is not afraid of their voice, nor giveth way before the multitude of them; so will Jehovah of hosts come down to war upon mount Zion, and on the hill thereof.
5 As birds with outstretched wings, so will Jehovah of hosts cover Jerusalem; covering, he will also deliver, passing over, he will rescue [it].

Isaiah 31:3-5
New International Version
Isaiah 31:3-5
New International Version
3 But the Egyptians(A) are mere mortals and not God;(B)
their horses(C) are flesh and not spirit.
When the Lord stretches out his hand,(D)
those who help will stumble,
those who are helped(E) will fall;
all will perish together.(F)
4 This is what the Lord says to me:
“As a lion(G) growls,
a great lion over its prey—
and though a whole band of shepherds(H)
is called together against it,
it is not frightened by their shouts
or disturbed by their clamor(I)—
so the Lord Almighty will come down(J)
to do battle on Mount Zion and on its heights.
5 Like birds hovering(K) overhead,
the Lord Almighty will shield(L) Jerusalem;
he will shield it and deliver(M) it,
he will ‘pass over’(N) it and will rescue it.”
