Isaiah 30:6-8
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
Isaiah 30:6-8
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
6 An oracle on the beasts of the Negeb.
Through a land of trouble and anguish,
from where come the lioness and the lion,
the viper and the flying serpent,
they carry their riches on the backs of asses,
and their treasures on the humps of camels,
to a people that cannot profit them.
7 For Egypt’s help is worthless and empty,
therefore I have called her
“Rahab who sits still.”
A Rebellious People
8 And now, go, write it before them on a tablet,
and inscribe it in a book,
that it may be for the time to come
as a witness for ever.

6 A prophecy(A) concerning the animals of the Negev:(B)
Through a land of hardship and distress,(C)
of lions(D) and lionesses,
of adders and darting snakes,(E)
the envoys carry their riches on donkeys’(F) backs,
their treasures(G) on the humps of camels,
to that unprofitable nation,
7 to Egypt, whose help is utterly useless.(H)
Therefore I call her
Rahab(I) the Do-Nothing.
