Isaiah 31:3-5
Christian Standard Bible
3 Egyptians are men, not God;
their horses are flesh, not spirit.
When the Lord raises his hand to strike,
the helper will stumble
and the one who is helped will fall;
both will perish together.
4 For this is what the Lord said to me:
As a lion or young lion growls over its prey(A)
when a band of shepherds is called out against it,
and it is not terrified by their shouting
or subdued by their noise,
so the Lord of Armies will come down
to fight on Mount Zion
and on its hill.(B)
5 Like hovering birds,
so the Lord of Armies will protect Jerusalem;(C)
by protecting it, he will rescue it;
by passing over it, he will deliver it.
