Isaiah 36:5

אָמַ֙רְתִּי֙ אַךְ־דְּבַר־שְׂפָתַ֔יִם עֵצָ֥ה וּגְבוּרָ֖ה לַמִּלְחָמָ֑ה עַתָּה֙ עַל־מִ֣י בָטַ֔חְתָּ כִּ֥י מָרַ֖דְתָּ בִּֽי׃
ʾamartiy ʾak-dbar-shpatayim ʿeṣah vgbvrah lamilḥamah ʿatah ʿal-miy baṭaḥta kiy maradta biy
King James Version (KJV)

I say, {sayest thou}, (but {they are but} vain words) {I have} counsel and strength for war: now on whom dost thou trust, that thou rebellest against me? {vain...: Heb. a word of lips} {I have...: or, but counsel and strength are for the war}

Modern English

I say that your counsel and strength for the war are only vain words. Now in whom do you trust, that you have rebelled against me?
