Isaiah 30:3-5

Context

30:3 But Pharaoh’s protection will bring you nothing but shame,

and the safety of Egypt’s protective shade nothing but humiliation.

30:4 Though his 1  officials are in Zoan

and his messengers arrive at Hanes, 2 

30:5 all will be put to shame 3 

because of a nation that cannot help them,

who cannot give them aid or help,

but only shame and disgrace.”

1 sn This probably refers to Judah’s officials and messengers.

2 sn Zoan was located in the Egyptian delta in the north; Hanes was located somewhere in southern region of lower Egypt, south of Memphis; the exact location is debated.

3 tn The present translation follows the marginal (Qere) reading of the Hebrew text; the consonantal text (Kethib) has “made to stink, decay.”
