Isaiah 36:5 in Context — Isaiah 36
3 Então saíram ao encontro dele Eliaquim, filho de Hilquias, o administrador da casa real; Sebna, o escriba, e Joá, filho de Asafe, o cronista.
4 E [Rabsaqué] lhes disse: Dizei, pois, a Ezequias: Assim diz o grande rei, o rei da Assíria: Que confiança é essa, em que confias?
5 Eu, de fato, digo, que [teus] conselhos e poder de guerra são apenas palavras vazias. Em quem, pois, confias, para te rebelares contra mim?
6 Eis que confias no Egito, aquele bastão de cana quebrada, em quem se alguém se apoiar, entrará pela mão e a perfurará; assim é Faraó, rei do Egito, para com todos os que nele confiam.
7 Porém, se me disseres: Confiamos no SENHOR, nosso Deus; Por acaso não é este aquele cujos altos e cujos altares Ezequias tirou, e disse a Judá e a Jerusalém: Perante este altar adorareis?
