Isaiah 30:8-15

View Full Chapter

8Go now, write it on a tablet for them, inscribe it on a scroll, that for the days to come it may be an everlasting witness.

9For these are rebellious people, deceitful children, children unwilling to listen to the LORD ’s instruction.

10They say to the seers, “See no more visions!” and to the prophets, “Give us no more visions of what is right! Tell us pleasant things, prophesy illusions.

11Leave this way, get off this path, and stop confronting us with the Holy One of Israel!”

12Therefore this is what the Holy One of Israel says: “Because you have rejected this message, relied on oppression and depended on deceit,

13this sin will become for you like a high wall, cracked and bulging, that collapses suddenly, in an instant.

14It will break in pieces like pottery, shattered so mercilessly that among its pieces not a fragment will be found for taking coals from a hearth or scooping water out of a cistern.”

15This is what the Sovereign LORD, the Holy One of Israel, says: “In repentance and rest is your salvation, in quietness and trust is your strength, but you would have none of it.
