Yesaya 30:1-6

Egypt Will Prove Unreliable

30:1 “The rebellious¹ children are as good as dead,”² says the Lord,

“those who make plans without consulting me,³

who form alliances without consulting my Spirit,⁴

and thereby compound their sin.⁵

30:2 They travel down to Egypt

without seeking my will,⁶

seeking Pharaoh’s protection,

and looking for safety in Egypt’s protective shade.⁷

30:3 But Pharaoh’s protection will bring you nothing but shame,

and the safety of Egypt’s protective shade nothing but humiliation.

30:4 Though his⁸ officials are in Zoan

and his messengers arrive at Hanes,⁹

30:5 all will be put to shame¹⁰

because of a nation that cannot help them,

who cannot give them aid or help,

but only shame and disgrace.”

30:6 This is a message¹¹ about the animals in the Negev:

Through a land of distress and danger,

inhabited by lionesses and roaring lions,¹²

by snakes and darting adders,¹³

they transport¹⁴ their wealth on the backs of donkeys,

their riches on the humps of camels,

to a nation that cannot help them.¹⁵

Yesaya 31:1-3

Egypt Will Disappoint

31:1 Those who go down to Egypt for help are as good as dead,¹⁶

those who rely on war horses,

and trust in Egypt’s many chariots¹⁷

and in their many, many horsemen.¹⁸

But they do not rely on the Holy One of Israel¹⁹

and do not seek help from the Lord.

31:2 Yet he too is wise²⁰ and he will bring disaster;

he does not retract his decree.²¹

He will attack the wicked nation,²²

and the nation that helps²³ those who commit sin.²⁴

31:3 The Egyptians are mere humans, not God;

their horses are made of flesh, not spirit.

The Lord will strike with²⁵ his hand;

the one who helps will stumble

and the one being helped will fall.

Together they will perish.²⁶

Yesaya 31:2

31:2 Yet he too is wise²⁷ and he will bring disaster;

he does not retract his decree.²⁸

He will attack the wicked nation,²⁹

and the nation that helps³⁰ those who commit sin.³¹

Kisah Para Rasul 16:7-11

16:7 When they came to³² Mysia,³³ they attempted to go into Bithynia,³⁴ but the Spirit of Jesus did not allow³⁵ them to do this,³⁶ 16:8 so they passed through³⁷ Mysia³⁸ and went down to Troas.³⁹ 16:9 A⁴⁰ vision appeared to Paul during the night: A Macedonian man was standing there⁴¹ urging him,⁴² “Come over⁴³ to Macedonia⁴⁴ and help us!” 16:10 After Paul⁴⁵ saw the vision, we attempted⁴⁶ immediately to go over to Macedonia,⁴⁷ concluding that God had called⁴⁸ us to proclaim the good news to them.

Arrival at Philippi

16:11 We put out to sea⁴⁹ from Troas⁵⁰ and sailed a straight course⁵¹ to Samothrace,⁵² the next day to Neapolis,⁵³

Yehezkiel 16:33

16:33 All prostitutes receive payment,⁵⁴ but instead you give gifts to every one of your lovers. You bribe them to come to you from all around for your sexual favors!

Yehezkiel 23:16

23:16 When she saw them,⁵⁵ she lusted after them and sent messengers to them in Chaldea.⁵⁶

Hosea 7:11

Israel Turns to Assyria and Egypt for Help

7:11 Ephraim has been like a dove,

easily deceived and lacking discernment.

They called to Egypt for help;

they turned to Assyria for protection.

Hosea 12:1

12:1 Ephraim continually feeds on the wind;

he chases the east wind all day;

he multiplies lies and violence.

They make treaties⁵⁷ with Assyria,

and send olive oil as tribute⁵⁸ to Egypt.
