Isaiah 19:11-16 Surely, foolish, are the princes of Zoan, the wisest counselors of Pharaoh, in counsel, are brutish,––How can ye say unto Pharaoh, Son of the wise, am I, Son of the kings of olden time?

Rotherham⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹¹ Surely, foolish, are the princes of Zoan, the wisest counselors of Pharaoh, in counsel, are brutish,––How can ye say unto Pharaoh, Son of the wise, am I, Son of the kings of olden time? ¹² Where then are, thy wise men? Pray let them tell thee! And let them know what Yahweh of hosts, hath purposed, on Egypt! ¹³ Doting, are the princes of Zoan, Deceived, are the princes of Noph: They who are the corner–stone of her tribes, have led Egypt astray. ¹⁴ Yahweh, hath infused in her midst, a spirit of perverseness,––And they have led Egypt astray into all his own doings, As a drunken man staggereth, into his own vomit; ¹⁵ And Egypt shall have nothing which can be done, Which head or tail, palm–top or rush, can do! ¹⁶ In that day, shall Egypt be like unto women,––And shall start and tremble because of the brandishing of the hand of Yahweh of hosts, which he, is about to brandish over it.
