Therefore shall the strength of Pharaoh be your shame, and the refuge in the shadow of Egypt your confusion.
They shall all be ashamed because of a people that cannot profit them, that are not a help nor profit, but a shame, and also a reproach.
For Egypt helpeth in vain, and to no purpose: therefore have I called her Rahab that sitteth still.
And all the inhabitants of Egypt shall know that I am Jehovah, because they have been a staff of reed to the house of Israel.
When they took hold of thee by thy hand, thou didst break, and didst rend all their shoulders; and when they leaned upon thee, thou brakest, and madest all their loins to be at a stand.
