isaiah 30:7 For the Egyptians shall help in vain, and to no purpose: therefore have I cried concerning this, Their strength is to sit still. - Free Bible Online

isaiah 30:7 Even Egypt, whose help is vain and empty. Therefore, I have called her "Rahab who has been exterminated."


      7. "Egypt is vanity, and to no purpose will they help" [G. V. SMITH].
      strength--Hebrew, Rabah, a designation for Egypt (Isa 51:9; Ps 87:4), implying her haughty fierceness; translate, "Therefore I call her Arrogance that sitteth still." She who boasted of the help she would give, when it came to the test, sat still (Isa 36:6). English Version agrees with Isa 30:15; Isa 7:4.
