Isaiah 36:8 in Context — Isaiah 36

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?

8 Agora, pois, submeta-te à proposta do meu senhor, o rei da Assíria; e eu te darei dois mil cavalos, se tu podes dar dois mil cavaleiros para eles.

9 Como, pois, te oporias a um chefe dentre os menores servos do meu senhor, [apenas] confiando nas carruagens e cavaleiros do Egito?

10 Ora, subi eu sem o SENHOR contra esta terra, para destruí-la? O [próprio] SENHOR me disse: Sobe contra esta terra, e destrói-a.
