Summary

In Isaiah 31:7, the prophet Isaiah warns the people of Judah against relying on Egypt for help in times of trouble, instead of turning to God. He emphasizes that Egypt's help is futile and will ultimately disappoint them. The verse serves as a reminder to trust in the Lord alone for deliverance and protection, rather than seeking assistance from worldly powers. It underscores the importance of faith and dependence on God's sovereignty and faithfulness in all circumstances.

Adam Clarke Bible Commentary

Which your own hands have made unto you for a sin "The sin, which their own hands have made" - The construction of the word חטא chet, sin, in this place is not easy. The Septuagint have omitted it: MSS. Pachom. and 1. D. 2 and Cod. Marchal. in margine, supply the omission by the word ἁμαρτιαν, sin, or ἁμαρτημα, said to be from Aquila's Version, which I have followed. The learned Professor Schroeder, Institut. Ling. Hebrews p. 298, makes it to be in regimine with ידיכם yedeychem, as an epithet, your sinful hands. The Septuagint render the pronoun in the third person, αἱ χειρες αυτων, their hands; and an ancient MS. has, agreeable to that rendering, להם lahem, to them, for לכם lachem, to you; which word they have likewise omitted, as not necessary to complete the sense.
