Bible Reading for July 13

Isaiah 19
[1] The burden of Egypt. Behold, the LORD rideth upon a swift cloud, and shall
come into Egypt: and the idols of Egypt shall be moved at his presence, and the
heart of Egypt shall melt in the midst of it. [2] And I will set the Egyptians
against the Egyptians: and they shall fight every one against his brother, and
every one against his neighbour; city against city, and kingdom against
kingdom. [3] And the spirit of Egypt shall fail in the midst thereof; and I
will destroy the counsel thereof: and they shall seek to the idols, and to the
charmers, and to them that have familiar spirits, and to the wizards. [4] And
the Egyptians will I give over into the hand of a cruel lord; and a fierce king
shall rule over them, saith the Lord, the LORD of hosts. [5] And the waters
shall fail from the sea, and the river shall be wasted and dried up.
[6] And they shall turn the rivers far away; and the brooks of defence shall be
emptied and dried up: the reeds and flags shall wither. [7] The paper reeds by
the brooks, by the mouth of the brooks, and every thing sown by the brooks,
shall wither, be driven away, and be no more. [8] The fishers also shall mourn,
and all they that cast angle into the brooks shall lament, and they that spread
nets upon the waters shall languish.
[9] Moreover they that work in fine flax, and they that weave networks, shall
be confounded.
[10] And they shall be broken in the purposes thereof, all that make sluices
and ponds for fish.
[11] Surely the princes of Zoan are fools, the counsel of the wise counsellers
of Pharaoh is become brutish: how say ye unto Pharaoh, I am the son of the
wise, the son of ancient kings? [12] Where are they? where are thy wise men?
and let them tell thee now, and let them know what the LORD of hosts hath
purposed upon Egypt. [13] The princes of Zoan are become fools, the princes of
Noph are deceived; they have also seduced Egypt, even they that are the stay of
the tribes thereof.
[14] The LORD hath mingled a perverse spirit in the midst thereof: and they
have caused Egypt to err in every work thereof, as a drunken man staggereth in
his vomit.
[15] Neither shall there be any work for Egypt, which the head or tail, branch
or rush, may do.
[16] In that day shall Egypt be like unto women: and it shall be afraid and
fear because of the shaking of the hand of the LORD of hosts, which he shaketh
over it.
[17] And the land of Judah shall be a terror unto Egypt, every one that maketh
mention thereof shall be afraid in himself, because of the counsel of the LORD
of hosts, which he hath determined against it. [18] In that day shall five
cities in the land of Egypt speak the language of Canaan, and swear to the LORD
of hosts; one shall be called, The city of destruction.
[19] In that day shall there be an altar to the LORD in the midst of the land
of Egypt, and a pillar at the border thereof to the LORD. [20] And it shall be
for a sign and for a witness unto the LORD of hosts in the land of Egypt: for
they shall cry unto the LORD because of the oppressors, and he shall send them
a saviour, and a great one, and he shall deliver them.
[21] And the LORD shall be known to Egypt, and the Egyptians shall know the
LORD in that day, and shall do sacrifice and oblation; yea, they shall vow a
vow unto the LORD, and perform it.
[22] And the LORD shall smite Egypt: he shall smite and heal it: and they shall
return even to the LORD, and he shall be intreated of them, and shall heal
them.
[23] In that day shall there be a highway out of Egypt to Assyria, and the
Assyrian shall come into Egypt, and the Egyptian into Assyria, and the
Egyptians shall serve with the Assyrians. [24] In that day shall Israel be the
third with Egypt and with Assyria, even a blessing in the midst of the land:
[25] Whom the LORD of hosts shall bless, saying, Blessed be Egypt my people,
and Assyria the work of my hands, and Israel mine inheritance.

Isaiah 20
[1] In the year that Tartan came unto Ashdod, (when Sargon the king of Assyria
sent him,) and fought against Ashdod, and took it; [2] At the same time spake
the LORD by Isaiah the son of Amoz, saying, Go and loose the sackcloth from off
thy loins, and put off thy shoe from thy foot. And he did so, walking naked and
barefoot. [3] And the LORD said, Like as my servant Isaiah hath walked naked
and barefoot three years for a sign and wonder upon Egypt and upon Ethiopia;
[4] So shall the king of Assyria lead away the Egyptians prisoners, and the
Ethiopians captives, young and old, naked and barefoot, even with their
buttocks uncovered, to the shame of Egypt. [5] And they shall be afraid and
ashamed of Ethiopia their expectation, and of Egypt their glory.
[6] And the inhabitant of this isle shall say in that day, Behold, such is our
expectation, whither we flee for help to be delivered from the king of Assyria:
and how shall we escape?

Isaiah 21
[1] The burden of the desert of the sea. As whirlwinds in the south pass
through; so it cometh from the desert, from a terrible land. [2] A grievous
vision is declared unto me; the treacherous dealer dealeth treacherously, and
the spoiler spoileth. Go up, O Elam: besiege, O Media; all the sighing thereof
have I made to cease. [3] Therefore are my loins filled with pain: pangs have
taken hold upon me, as the pangs of a woman that travaileth: I was bowed down
at the hearing of it; I was dismayed at the seeing of it. [4] My heart panted,
fearfulness affrighted me: the night of my pleasure hath he turned into fear
unto me.
[5] Prepare the table, watch in the watchtower, eat, drink: arise, ye princes,
and anoint the shield.
[6] For thus hath the Lord said unto me, Go, set a watchman, let him declare
what he seeth.
[7] And he saw a chariot with a couple of horsemen, a chariot of asses, and a
chariot of camels; and he hearkened diligently with much heed: [8] And he
cried, A lion: My lord, I stand continually upon the watchtower in the daytime,
and I am set in my ward whole nights: [9] And, behold, here cometh a chariot of
men, with a couple of horsemen. And he answered and said, Babylon is fallen, is
fallen; and all the graven images of her gods he hath broken unto the ground.
[10] O my threshing, and the corn of my floor: that which I have heard of the
LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, have I declared unto you. [11] The burden of
Dumah. He calleth to me out of Seir, Watchman, what of the night? Watchman,
what of the night? [12] The watchman said, The morning cometh, and also the
night: if ye will inquire, inquire ye: return, come.
[13] The burden upon Arabia. In the forest in Arabia shall ye lodge, O ye
travelling companies of Dedanim.
[14] The inhabitants of the land of Tema brought water to him that was thirsty,
they prevented with their bread him that fled. [15] For they fled from the
swords, from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the grievousness
of war. [16] For thus hath the Lord said unto me, Within a year, according to
the years of an hireling, and all the glory of Kedar shall fail: [17] And the
residue of the number of archers, the mighty men of the children of Kedar,
shall be diminished: for the LORD God of Israel hath spoken it.
