Isaiah 30:5-7
Lexham English Bible
5 Everyone will start to stink because of a people that cannot profit them,
not for help and not for profiting,
but for shame and also for disgrace.”
Oracle regarding the Negev
6 An oracle of the animals of the Negev:
Through a land of trouble and distress,
of lioness and lion,
among[a] them are snake and flying serpent;
they carry their wealth on the backs[b] of male donkeys
and their treasures on the humps[c] of camels,
to a people that cannot profit them.
7 For[d] Egyptians[e] help with vanity and emptiness,
therefore I have called this one “Rahab, they are sitting.”
