Isaiah 19:11

Oracle Of Judgment On Egypt

¹⁰ And they shall be crushed in their purposes, all that make wages will be grieved. ¹¹ Surely the princes of Zoan are fools, the counsel of the wise counselors of Pharaoh give foolish counsel: how do you say unto Pharaoh, I am the son of the wise, the son of ancient kings? ¹² Where are they? where are your wise men? and let them tell you now, and let them know what the LORD of hosts has purposed upon Egypt.
