Trust not in princes, nor in the children of men, in whom there is no safety.

Blessed is he whose helper is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the Lord his God:

[even] they that proceed to go down into Egypt, for they have not inquired of Me, that they might be helped by Pharaoh, and protected by the Egyptians.

For the protection of Pharaoh shall be to you a disgrace, and [there shall be] a reproach to them that trust in Egypt.

Thus says the Lord, the Holy Lord of Israel; When you shall turn and mourn, then you shall be saved; and you shall know where you were, when you trusted in vanities; [then] your strength became vain, yet you would not hearken;

A thousand shall flee because of the voice of one, and many shall flee on account of the voice of five; until you are left as a signal-post upon a mountain, and as one bearing an ensign upon a hill.

Woe to them that go down to Egypt for help, who trust in horses and chariots, for they are many; and in horses, [which are] a great multitude; and have not trusted in the Holy One of Israel, and have not sought the Lord.

And the Assyrian shall fall; not the sword of a great man, nor the sword of a mean man shall devour him; neither shall he flee from the face of the sword; but the young men shall be overthrown;

Behold, you trust on this bruised staff of reed, on Egypt; [as soon] as a man leans upon it, it shall go into his hand, and pierce it; so is Pharaoh king of Egypt and all that trust in him.

But if you say, We trust in the Lord our God;

When they took hold of you with their hand, you broke [them;] and when every hand was clapped against them, and when they leaned on you, you utterly broke them, and crushed the loins of them all.
