Isaiah 19:12

Context

19:12 But where, oh where, are your wise men? 1 

Let them tell you, let them find out

what the Lord who commands armies has planned for Egypt.

Isaiah 19:14

Context

19:14 The Lord has made them undiscerning; 2 

they lead Egypt astray in all she does,

so that she is like a drunk sliding around in his own vomit. 3 

1 tn Heb “Where are they? Where are your wise men?” The juxtaposition of the interrogative pronouns is emphatic. See HALOT 38 s.v. אֶי.

2 tn Heb “the Lord has mixed into her midst a spirit of blindness.”

3 tn Heb “like the going astray of a drunkard in his vomit.”
