Isaiah 19:11-13

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹¹ The princes of Zoan are utterly foolish;
    the wise counselors of Pharaoh give stupid counsel.
How can you say to Pharaoh,
    “I am one of the sages,
    a descendant of ancient kings”?
¹² Where now are your sages?
    Let them tell you and make known
    what the Lord of hosts has planned against Egypt.
¹³ The princes of Zoan have become fools,
    and the princes of Memphis are deluded;
those who are the cornerstones of its tribes
    have led Egypt astray.
