To them

“Woe to the rebellious children,” declares the Lord,
“Who execute a plan, but not Mine,
And

make an alliance, but not of My Spirit,

In order to add sin to sin;

Behold, you rely on the staff of this crushed reed, even on Egypt, on which if a man leans, it will go into his hand and pierce it. So is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all who rely on him.

“You have journeyed to the king with oil
And increased your perfumes;
You have sent your envoys a great distance
And made them go down to Sheol.

They will not return to the land of Egypt;

But Assyria—he will be their king
Because they refused to return to Me.

Stay on horses

And you said, “No, for we will flee on horses,”
Therefore you shall flee!
“And we will ride on swift horses,”
Therefore those who pursue you shall be swift.

How then can you repulse one official of the least of my master’s servants and

rely on Egypt for chariots and for horsemen?

Moreover, he shall not multiply horses for himself, nor shall he cause the people to return to Egypt to multiply horses, since the Lord has said to you, ‘You shall never again return that way.’

Some boast in chariots and some in horses,
But we will boast in the name of the Lord, our God.

The king is not saved by a mighty army;

A warrior is not delivered by great strength.

They look

Their banquets are accompanied by lyre and harp, by tambourine and flute, and by wine;
But they do not pay attention to the deeds of the Lord,
Nor do they consider the work of His hands.

In that day man will have regard for his Maker
And his eyes will look to the Holy One of Israel.

And you made a reservoir between the two walls
For the waters of the old pool.
But you did not depend on Him who made it,
Nor did you take into consideration Him who planned it long ago.

“For My people have committed two evils:
They have forsaken Me,
The fountain of living waters,
To hew for themselves cisterns,
Broken cisterns
That can hold no water.

Thus says the Lord,
“Cursed is the man who trusts in mankind
And makes flesh his strength,
And whose heart turns away from the Lord.

“Assyria will not save us,
We will not ride on horses;
Nor will we say again, ‘Our god,’
To the work of our hands;
For in You the orphan finds mercy.”

Neither

Yet the people do not turn back to Him who struck them,
Nor do they seek the Lord of hosts.

There is no one who calls on Your name,
Who arouses himself to take hold of You;
For You have hidden Your face from us
And have delivered us into the power of our iniquities.

As it is written in the law of Moses, all this calamity has come on us; yet we have not sought the favor of the Lord our God by turning from our iniquity and giving attention to Your truth.

All of them are hot like an oven,
And they consume their rulers;
All their kings have fallen.

None of them calls on Me.

For thus says the Lord to the house of Israel,
“Seek Me that you may live.
