Isaiah 19:11-13

Legacy Standard Bible

¹¹ The princes of ^[a](A)Zoan are merely ignorant fools;
The counsel of Pharaoh’s wisest counselors has become ^[b]senseless.
How can you men say to Pharaoh,
“I am a son of the ^(B)wise, a son of the kings of old”?
¹² Well then, where are your wise men?
Please let them tell you,
And let them ^[c]understand what Yahweh of hosts
Has ^(C)counseled against Egypt.
¹³ The princes of ^[d]Zoan have acted as ignorant fools,
The princes of ^(D)Memphis are deluded;
Those who are the ^(E)cornerstone of her tribes
^[e]Have led Egypt astray.
