But both rebels and sinners will be destroyed,
and those who abandon the Lord will perish.

The strong one will become tinder,
and his work a spark;
both will burn together,
with no one to quench the flames.

Manasseh is with Ephraim,
and Ephraim with Manasseh;
together, both are against Judah.
In all this, His anger is not removed,
and His hand is still raised to strike.

>

Egyptians are men, not God;
their horses are flesh, not spirit.
When the Lord raises His hand to strike,
the helper will stumble
and the one who is helped will fall;
both will perish together.
