2 They go down to Egypt+ without consulting me,*+

To take shelter under Pharʹaoh’s protection*

And to take refuge in the shadow of Egypt!

 3 But the protection of Pharʹaoh will become for you a reason for shame,

And refuge in Egypt’s shadow a cause for humiliation.+

You will become ashamed of Egypt too,+

Just as you became ashamed of As·syrʹi·a.+
