Isaiah 28:9-14

9They say “To whom would He teach knowledge? And to whom would He explain the message? Those just weaned from milk? Those just taken from the breast?

10For He says, ‘Precept upon precept, precept upon precept, Rule upon rule, rule upon rule, Here a little, there a little.’ ”

11Indeed, the Lord will teach this people [in a more humiliating way] By [men with] stammering lips and a foreign tongue,

12He who said to them, “This is the place of quiet, give rest to the weary,” And, “This is the resting place,” yet they would not listen.

13Therefore the word of the Lord to them will be [merely monotonous repetitions]: “Precept upon precept, precept upon precept, Rule upon rule, rule upon rule, Here a little, there a little.” That they may go and stumble backward, and be broken, ensnared, and taken captive.

14Therefore, hear the word of the Lord, you arrogant men Who rule this people who are in Jerusalem!
