KJV ORIGINAL
And it shall be no more the confidence of the house of Israel, which bringeth their iniquity to remembrance, when they shall look after them: but they shall know that I am the Lord GOD.
Close to the original. Clear modern English.
✦ MADE SIMPLE
Egypt won't be Israel's backup plan anymore — the one they always ran to when things got tough, which just reminded everyone of how they kept messing up. When Israel stops looking to Egypt for help, they'll finally realize that I'm the Lord God.
⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE
Sometimes God removes our backup plans so we'll finally turn to the real source of help.
