Isaiah 30:8-14

8Go now, write it on a tablet in their presence and inscribe it on a scroll; it will be for the future, forever and ever.

9They are a rebellious people, deceptive children, children who do not want to listen to the Lord’s instruction.

10They say to the seers, “Do not see,” and to the prophets, “Do not prophesy the truth to us. Tell us flattering things. Prophesy illusions.

11Get out of the way! Leave the pathway. Rid us of the Holy One of Israel.”

12Therefore the Holy One of Israel says: “Because you have rejected this message and have trusted in oppression and deceit, and have depended on them,

13this iniquity of yours will be like a crumbling gap, a bulge in a high wall whose collapse will come in an instant — suddenly!

14Its collapse will be like the shattering of a potter’s jar, crushed to pieces, so that not even a fragment of pottery will be found among its shattered remains — no fragment large enough to take fire from a hearth or scoop water from a cistern.”
