Context of Isaiah 30:9
7For Egypt shall help in vain, and to no purpose; therefore have I named her, Arrogance, that doeth nothing. 8Now go, write it before them on a tablet, and record it in a book, that it may be for the time to come, as a witness for ever, that this is a rebellious people, lying children, children that will not hear the law of Jehovah; 10who say to the seers, See not; and to the prophets, Prophesy not unto us right things; speak unto us smooth things, prophesy deceits; 11get you out of the way, turn aside out of the path, cause the Holy One of Israel to cease from before us!
