Isaiah 30:3

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Therefore shall the strength of Pharaoh be your shame, and the trust in the shadow of Egypt your confusion.

everyone comes to shame through a people that cannot profit them, that brings neither help nor profit, but shame and disgrace."

Then they shall be dismayed and ashamed because of Cush their hope and of Egypt their boast.

The army of Pharaoh had come out of Egypt. And when the Chaldeans who were besieging Jerusalem heard news about them, they withdrew from Jerusalem.

All of them are put to shame and confounded; the makers of idols go in confusion together.

Thus says the LORD: "Cursed is the man who trusts in man and makes flesh his strength, whose heart turns away from the LORD.

and hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.

For the Scripture says, "Everyone who believes in him will not be put to shame."

Trusting in a treacherous man in time of trouble is like a bad tooth or a foot that slips.
