HO TO THEM WHO LOOK NOT UPON THE HOLY ONE
Ho to them who descend to Misrayim for help; and lean on horses and confide in chariots because they are many; and in cavalry because they are mighty mighty; and neither look to the Holy One of Yisra El nor seek Yah Veh. 2 Yet he also is wise and brings evil and turns not aside his words: but rises against the house of the vilifiers, and against the help of them who work mischief. 3 And the Misrayim are human, and not El; and their horses flesh, and not spirit. When Yah Veh spreads his hand the helper falters and the helped falls and they all finish together. 4 For Yah Veh says thus to me, As the lion and the whelp meditate on his prey when a fulness of tenders call against him, he neither terrifies by their voice nor humbles himself for the multitude: thus Yah Veh Sabaoth descends to fight for mount Siyon and for the hill. 5 As birds flying, thus Yah Veh Sabaoth garrisons Yeru Shalem: and in garrisoning, he delivers; and passing over he rescues. 6 You, turn to him from whom the sons of Yisra El deepen revolt: 7 for in that day, every man spurns his idols of silver and his idols of gold - which your own hands worked to you, a sin: 8 and the Ashshuri fall with the sword, not of man; and the sword, not of humanity, consumes him: and he flees the face of the sword and his youths become vassals: 9 and he passes over to his rock from terror, and his governors dismay of the ensign - an oracle of Yah Veh whose flame is in Siyon and his furnace in Yeru Shalem.
