TSK · Isaiah 30:16

The LORD will raise up a distant nation against you, one from the other side of the earth as the eagle flies, a nation whose language you will not understand,

Will you rely on it because its strength is great? Will you commit your labor to it?

He is not enamored with the strength of a horse, nor is he impressed by the warrior’s strong legs.

They attacked Aiath, moved through Migron, depositing their supplies at Micmash.

The Egyptians are mere humans, not God; their horses are made of flesh, not spirit. The LORD will strike with his hand; the one who helps will stumble and the one being helped will fall. Together they will perish.

They broke through the city walls, and all the soldiers tried to escape. They left the city during the night. They went through the gate between the two walls that is near the king’s garden.(The Babylonians had the city surrounded.) Then they headed for the rift valley.

Fast runners will find no place to hide; strong men will have no strength left; warriors will not be able to save their lives.

Residents of Lachish, hitch the horses to the chariots! You influenced Daughter Zion to sin, for Israel’s rebellious deeds can be traced back to you!
