Look at the people going down to Egypt for help. The people ask for horses. They think horses will save them. The people hope the chariots {\cf2\super [289]} and horse soldiers from Egypt will protect them. The people think they are safe because that army is very big. The people don’t trust the Holy One of Israel (God). The people don’t ask the Lord for help.
The Lord says,\par “Egypt and Ethiopia are rich,\par but Israel, you will get those riches.\par The tall people from Seba will be yours.\par They will walk behind you\par with chains around their necks.\par They will bow down before you.\par And they will pray to you.”\par \{Israel\}, God is with you.\par And there is no other God.\par
