Turn aside from the path,
Cause the Holy One of Israel
To cease from before us.”
“Because you adespise this word,
And trust in oppression and perversity,
And rely on them,
aLike a breach ready to fall,
A bulge in a high wall,
Whose breaking bcomes suddenly, in an instant.
Which is broken in pieces;
He shall not spare.
So there shall not be found among its fragments
1A shard to take fire from the hearth,
Or to take water from the cistern.”
a“In returning and rest you shall be saved;
In quietness and confidence shall be your strength.”
bBut you would not,
Therefore you shall flee!
And, “We will ride on swift horses”—
Therefore those who pursue you shall be swift!
| << Isaiah 30:12 | Isaiah 30:14 >> |
