Isaiah 31:3-5
New King James Version
3 Now the Egyptians are men, and not God;
And their horses are flesh, and not spirit.
When the Lord stretches out His hand,
Both he who helps will fall,
And he who is helped will fall down;
They all will perish (A)together.
God Will Deliver Jerusalem
4 For thus the Lord has spoken to me:
(B)“As a lion roars,
And a young lion over his prey
(When a multitude of shepherds is summoned against him,
He will not be afraid of their voice
Nor be disturbed by their noise),
So the Lord of hosts will come down
To fight for Mount Zion and for its hill.
5 (C)Like birds flying about,
So will the Lord of hosts defend Jerusalem.
Defending, He will also deliver it;
Passing over, He will preserve it.”
Isaiah 31:3-5
New International Version
3 But the Egyptians(A) are mere mortals and not God;(B)
their horses(C) are flesh and not spirit.
When the Lord stretches out his hand,(D)
those who help will stumble,
those who are helped(E) will fall;
all will perish together.(F)
4 This is what the Lord says to me:
“As a lion(G) growls,
a great lion over its prey—
and though a whole band of shepherds(H)
is called together against it,
it is not frightened by their shouts
or disturbed by their clamor(I)—
so the Lord Almighty will come down(J)
to do battle on Mount Zion and on its heights.
5 Like birds hovering(K) overhead,
the Lord Almighty will shield(L) Jerusalem;
he will shield it and deliver(M) it,
he will ‘pass over’(N) it and will rescue it.”
