Isaiah 9:17
Compare all
15 The elder and honorable, he is the head;
The prophet who teaches lies, he is the tail.
16 For athe leaders of this people cause them to err,
And those who are led by them are destroyed. 
17 Therefore the Lord awill have no joy in their young men,
Nor have mercy on their fatherless and widows;
For everyone is a hypocrite and an evildoer,
And every mouth speaks1 folly.
bFor all this His anger is not turned away,
But His hand is stretched out still. 
18 For wickedness aburns as the fire;
It shall devour the briers and thorns,
And kindle in the thickets of the forest;
They shall mount up like rising smoke. 
19 Through the wrath of the Lord of hosts
aThe land is burned up,
And the people shall be as fuel for the fire;
bNo man shall spare his brother. 
20 And he shall1 snatch on the right hand
And be hungry;
He shall devour on the left hand
aAnd not be satisfied;
bEvery man shall eat the flesh of his own arm. 
21 Manasseh shall devour Ephraim, and Ephraim Manasseh;
Together they shall be aagainst Judah.
bFor all this His anger is not turned away,
But His hand is stretched out still.
