Isaiah 36:6-8

Holman Christian Standard Bible

⁶ Look, you are trusting in Egypt, that splintered reed of a staff^(A) that will enter and pierce the hand of anyone who leans on it. This is how Pharaoh king of Egypt is to all who trust in him.^{(B) 7} Suppose you say to me, ‘We trust in the Lord our God.’ Isn’t He the One whose high places and altars Hezekiah has removed, saying to Judah and Jerusalem, ‘You are to worship at this altar’?^(C)
