For so the LORD said unto me,
I will take my rest, and I will watch from my dwelling place like a clear heat in sunshine, and like a cloud of dew in the heat of harvest.
Read Chapter 18

But I will frustrate his evil designs. His army shall perish unexpectedly, ver. 5. (Calmet)
The Egyptians had sent messengers to assure the Israelites that they would come to assist them: but the prophet informs them of their own ruin. (Worthington)
