- for the LORD[YHWH]:
- "Why¹ gaddest¹ thou about²° so muchª to changeª°¹ thy way?ª thou also¹ shalt be ashamedª° of Egypt,ª¹ as¹ thou wast ashamedª° of Assyria.ª¹" {Jer 2:36} + "Thus¹ saithª° the LORD;ª Cursedª° [be] the manª that¹ trustethª° in man,ª and makethª° fleshª his arm,ª and whose heartª departethª° from¹ the LORD.ª" {Jer 17:5} + "Thus¹ saithª° the LORD,ª the Godª of Israel;ª Thus¹ shall ye sayª° to¹ the kingª of Judah,ª that sentª° you unto¹ me to enquireª° of me; Behold,¹ Pharaoh'sª army,ª which is come forthª° to helpª you, shall returnª° to Egyptª into their own land.ª ... For¹ though¹ ye had smittenª° the whole¹ armyª of the Chaldeansª that fightª° against¹ you, and there remainedª° [but] woundedª° men²¹ among them, [yet] should they rise¹ up²° every manª in his tent,ª and burnª°¹ this¹ cityª with fire.ª" {Jer 37:7-10} + "Without¹ me they shall² bow downª° under¹ the prisoners,ª and they shall fallª° under¹ the slain.ª° For all¹ this¹ his angerª is not¹ turned away,ª° but his handª [is] stretched out¹ still.²°¹" {Isa 10:4} + "But he rebelledª° against him in sendingª° his ambassadorsª into Egypt,ª that they might giveª° him horsesª and muchª people.ª Shall he prosper?ª° shall he escapeª° that doethª° such¹ [things]? or shall he breakª° the covenant,ª and be delivered?ª° ... And I will spreadª° my netª upon¹ him, and he shall be takenª° in my snare,ª and I will bringª° him to Babylon,ª and will pleadª° with¹ him there¹ for his trespassª° that¹ he hath trespassed²¹ against me." {Ezk 17:15-20}
