Isaiah 19
19
Proclamation Against Egypt
1The #Jer. 9:25, 26; Ezek. 29:1—30:19; Joel 3:19burden against Egypt.
Behold, the Lord #Ps. 18:10; 104:3; Matt. 26:64; Rev. 1:7rides on a swift cloud,
And will come into Egypt;
#Ex. 12:12; Jer. 43:12The idols of Egypt will totter at His presence,
And the heart of Egypt will melt in its midst.
2“I will #Judg. 7:22; 1 Sam. 14:16, 20; 2 Chr. 20:23; Matt. 10:21, 36set Egyptians against Egyptians;
Everyone will fight against his brother,
And everyone against his neighbor,
City against city, kingdom against kingdom.
3The spirit of Egypt will fail in its midst;
I will destroy their counsel,
And they will #1 Chr. 10:13; Is. 8:19; 47:12; Dan. 2:2consult the idols and the charmers,
The mediums and the sorcerers.
4And the Egyptians I will give
#Is. 20:4; Jer. 46:26; Ezek. 29:19Into the hand of a cruel master,
And a fierce king will rule over them,”
Says the Lord, the Lord of hosts.
5#Is. 50:2; Jer. 51:36; Ezek. 30:12The waters will fail from the sea,
And the river will be wasted and dried up.
6The rivers will turn foul;
The brooks #2 Kin. 19:24of defense will be emptied and dried up;
The reeds and rushes will wither.
7The papyrus reeds by the River, by the mouth of the River,
And everything sown by the River,
Will wither, be driven away, and be no more.
8The fishermen also will mourn;
All those will lament who cast hooks into the River,
And they will languish who spread nets on the waters.
9Moreover those who work in #1 Kin. 10:28; Prov. 7:16; Ezek. 27:7fine flax
And those who weave fine fabric will be ashamed;
10And its foundations will be broken.
All who make wages will be troubled of soul.
11Surely the princes of #Num. 13:22; Ps. 78:12, 43; Is. 30:4Zoan are fools;
Pharaoh’s wise counselors give foolish counsel.
#Gen. 41:38, 39; 1 Kin. 4:29, 30; Acts 7:22How do you say to Pharaoh, “I am the son of the wise,
The son of ancient kings?”
12#1 Cor. 1:20Where are they?
Where are your wise men?
Let them tell you now,
And let them know what the Lord of hosts has #Ps. 33:11purposed against Egypt.
13The princes of Zoan have become fools;
#Jer. 2:16; Ezek. 30:13The princes of Noph are deceived;
They have also deluded Egypt,
Those who are the mainstay of its tribes.
14The Lord has mingled #1 Kin. 22:22; Is. 29:10a perverse spirit in her midst;
And they have caused Egypt to err in all her work,
As a drunken man staggers in his vomit.
15Neither will there be any work for Egypt,
Which #Is. 9:14–16the head or tail,
Palm branch or bulrush, may do.
16In that day Egypt will #Jer. 51:30; Nah. 3:13be like women, and will be afraid and fear because of the waving of the hand of the Lord of hosts, #Is. 11:15which He waves over it. 17And the land of Judah will be a terror to Egypt; everyone who makes mention of it will be afraid in himself, because of the counsel of the Lord of hosts which He has #Is. 14:24; Dan. 4:35determined against it.
Egypt, Assyria, and Israel Blessed
18In that day five cities in the land of Egypt will #Zeph. 3:9speak the language of Canaan and #Is. 45:23swear by the Lord of hosts; one will be called the City of Destruction.
19In that day #Gen. 28:18; Ex. 24:4; Josh. 22:10, 26, 27; Is. 56:7; 60:7there will be an altar to the Lord in the midst of the land of Egypt, and a pillar to the #Ps. 68:31Lord at its border. 20And #Josh. 4:20; 22:27it will be for a sign and for a witness to the Lord of hosts in the land of Egypt; for they will cry to the Lord because of the oppressors, and He will send them a #Is. 43:11Savior and a Mighty One, and He will deliver them. 21Then the Lord will be known to Egypt, and the Egyptians will #(Is. 2:3, 4; 11:9)know the Lord in that day, and #Is. 56:7; 60:7; Zech. 14:16–18; Mal. 1:11will make sacrifice and offering; yes, they will make a vow to the Lord and perform it. 22And the Lord will strike Egypt, He will strike and #Deut. 32:39; Is. 30:26; 57:18; (Heb. 12:11)heal it; they will return to the Lord, and He will be entreated by them and heal them.
23In that day #Is. 11:16; 35:8; 49:11; 62:10there will be a highway from Egypt to Assyria, and the Assyrian will come into Egypt and the Egyptian into Assyria, and the Egyptians will #Is. 27:13serve with the Assyrians.
24In that day Israel will be one of three with Egypt and Assyria—a blessing in the midst of the land, 25whom the Lord of hosts shall bless, saying, “Blessed is Egypt My people, and Assyria #Deut. 14:2; Ps. 100:3; Is. 29:23; Hos. 2:23; (Eph. 2:10)the work of My hands, and Israel My inheritance.”
