woe! [the] to go down Egypt to/for help upon horse to lean and to trust upon chariot for many and upon horseman for be vast much and not to gaze upon holy Israel and [obj] LORD not to seek
2 Forsothe he that is wijs, hath brouyt yuel, and took not awei hise wordis; and he schal rise togidere ayens the hous of worste men, and ayens the helpe of hem that worchen wickidnesse.

3 Egipt is a man, and not God; and the horsis of hem ben fleisch, and not spirit; and the Lord schal bowe doun his hond, and the helpere schal falle doun, and he schal falle, to whom help is youun, and alle schulen be wastid togidere.

8 And Assur schal falle bi swerd, not of man, and a swerd, not of man, schal deuoure hym; and he schal fle, not fro the face of swerd, and hise yonge men schulen be tributaries;
and to fall: kill Assyria in/on/with sword not man and sword not man to eat him and to flee to/for him from face: before sword and youth his to/for taskworker to be
9 and the strengthe of hym schal passe fro ferdfulnesse, and hise princes fleynge schulen drede. The Lord seide, whos fier is in Sion, and his chymeney is in Jerusalem.
and crag his from terror to pass and to to be dismayed from ensign ruler his utterance LORD which flame to/for him in/on/with Zion and oven to/for him in/on/with Jerusalem
