Isaiah 31
King James Bible: Purple Letter EditionERP 
1Woe to those who go down to Egypt for help; and rely {stay} on horses, and trust in chariots, because they are many; and in horsemen, because they are very strong; but they look not unto the Holy One of Israel, neither seek the LORD! 2Yet He also is wise, and will bring evil, and will not call back His words; but will arise against the house of the evildoers, and against the help of them who work iniquity. 3Now the Egyptians are men, and not God; and their horses flesh, and not spirit. When the LORD shall stretch out His hand, both he that helpeth shall fall, and he that is helped shall fall down, and they all shall fail together.

4For thus hath the LORD spoken unto me, {Like} As the lion or {and} the young lion roaring on his prey, when a multitude of shepherds is called forth against him, {he} will not be afraid of their voice, nor abase himself for the noise of them, so shall the LORD of hosts come down to fight for Mount Zion, and for the hill thereof. 5As birds flying, so will the LORD of hosts defend Jerusalem; defending also He will deliver it; and passing over He will preserve it. 6Turn ye unto Him from Whom the children of Israel have deeply revolted. 7For in that day every man shall cast away his idols of silver, and his idols of gold, which your own hands have made unto you for a sin. 8Then shall the Assyrian fall by {with} the sword, not of {a mighty} man; and the sword, not of men {a mean man}, shall devour him; but he shall flee from the sword, and his young men shall be made vassals {discomfited}. 9And he shall pass over to his stronghold for fear, and his princes shall be afraid of the ensign, saith the LORD, Whose fire is in Zion, and His furnace in Jerusalem.
