Woe{H1945} to them that go down{H3381} to Egypt{H4714} for help,{H5833} and rely{H8172} on horses,{H5483} and trust{H982} in chariots{H7393} because they are many,{H7227} and in horsemen{H6571} because they are very{H3966} strong,{H6105} but they look{H8159} not unto the Holy One{H6918} of Israel,{H3478} neither seek{H1875} Jehovah!{H3068}

Verse 5

As birds{H6833} hovering,{H5774} so will Jehovah{H3068} of hosts{H6635} protect{H1598} Jerusalem;{H3389} he will protect{H1598} and deliver{H5337} [it], he will pass over{H6452} and preserve{H4422} [it].
