Isaiah 19:9 Context
7The paper reeds by the brookes, by the mouth of the brookes, and euery thing sowen by the brooks shal wither, be driuen away, and be no more. 8The fishers also shall mourne, and all they that cast angle into the brookes shall lament, and they that spread nets vpon the waters shall languish. 9Moreouer they that worke in fine flaxe, and they that weaue net-works shall be confounded. 10And they shall be broken in the purposes thereof, all that make sluces and ponds for fish. 11¶ Surely the princes of Zoan are fooles, the counsell of the wise counsellers of Pharaoh is become brutish: How say ye vnto Pharaoh, I am the sonne of the wise, the sonne of ancient kings?
