7 “This is what Jehovah the God of Israel says, ‘This is what you should say to the king of Judah, who sent you to me to inquire of me: “Look! The army of Pharʹaoh that is coming to assist you will have to go back to its land, Egypt.+ 8 And the Chal·deʹans will come back and fight against this city and capture it and burn it with fire.”+

17 Even now our eyes are worn out from looking in vain for help.+

We looked and looked for help from a nation that could not save us.+
