Where then are your wise men?
Let them tell you now; and let them know what the LORD of Armies has purposed concerning Egypt.
The princes of Zoan have become fools.
The princes of Memphis are deceived.
They have caused Egypt to go astray, those who are the cornerstone of her tribes.
The LORD has mixed a spirit of perverseness in the middle of her; and they have caused Egypt to go astray in all of its works, like a drunken man staggers in his vomit.
Neither shall there be any work for Egypt, which head or tail, palm branch or rush, may do.
