Isaiah 30:5-7

American Standard Version

⁵ 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.

⁶ The ^[a]burden of the beasts of the South.

Through the land of trouble and anguish, from whence come the lioness and the lion, the viper and fiery flying serpent, they carry their riches upon the shoulders of young asses, and their treasures upon the humps of camels, to a people that shall not profit them. ⁷ For Egypt helpeth in vain, and to no purpose: therefore have I ^[b]called her Rahab that sitteth still.
