3
But Pharaoh's protection will become your shame, and refuge in Egypt's shadow your disgrace.
Isaiah 30:3 In-Context
1
“Woe to the obstinate children,” declares the LORD, “to those who carry out plans that are not mine, forming an alliance, but not by my Spirit, heaping sin upon sin;
2
who go down to Egypt without consulting me; who look for help to Pharaoh’s protection, to Egypt’s shade for refuge.
3
But Pharaoh’s protection will be to your shame, Egypt’s shade will bring you disgrace.
4
Though they have officials in Zoan and their envoys have arrived in Hanes,
5
everyone will be put to shame because of a people useless to them, who bring neither help nor advantage, but only shame and disgrace.”
