Isaiah 30

YHWH condemns Judah for seeking alliance with Pharaoh and Egypt against Assyria, warning it will bring shame and destruction like a collapsing wall, while urging trust in him for salvation through returning and rest.[1][2][3] Despite judgment, YHWH promises mercy, deliverance from Assyria with his voice and arm in raging fire and hail, destruction in Tophet, and future blessings of prosperity and guidance for the repentant.[1][2][4]
