Isaiah 36:6-9 Lo! thou dost trust on the support of this bruised cane, on Egypt, whereon, if a man lean, it will enter his hand, and lay it open,––So, is Pharaoh, king of Egypt, to all who trust upon him.

Rotherham⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁶ Lo! thou dost trust on the support of this bruised cane, on Egypt, whereon, if a man lean, it will enter his hand, and lay it open,––So, is Pharaoh, king of Egypt, to all who trust upon him. ⁷ But, if thou shouldst say unto me, In Yahweh our God, do we trust, Then is that, not he, whose high places and whose altars, Hezekiah hath removed, and said unto Judah and unto Jerusalem, Before this altar, shall ye bow yourselves down? ⁸ Now, therefore, pledge thyself, I pray thee, with my lord, the king of Assyria,––That I supply thee with two thousand horses, If thou, on thy part, be able to set riders upon them; ⁹ How then, wilt thou turn away the face of one pasha of the least of my lord’s servants? Or hast thou, on thy part, trusted upon Egypt, for chariots and for horsemen?
