Isaiah 28:7-19
7But these alsoH1571 have erredH7686 through wineH3196, and through strongH7941 drinkH7941 are they goneH8582 astrayH8582. The priestH3548 and the prophetH5030 have erredH7686 through strongH7941 drinkH7941; they are overpowered by wineH3196, they are goneH8582 astrayH8582 through strongH7941 drinkH7941; they have erredH7686 in vision, they have stumbled [in] judgment.
8For all tablesH7979 are fullH4390 of filthy vomitH6892, so that there is no [more] placeH4725.
9Whom shall he teachH3384 knowledgeH1844? and whom shall he make to understandH995 the reportH8052? Them that are weanedH1580 from the milkH2461, withdrawn from the breastsH7699?
10For [it is] precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a littleH2191, there a littleH2191. ...
11For with stammering lipsH8193 and a strange tongueH3956 will he speakH1696 to this peopleH5971;
12to whom he saidH559, This is the restH5117: cause the wearyH5889 to restH5117; and this is the refreshing. But they wouldH14 not hearH8085.
13And the wordH1697 of Jehovah wasH1961 unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, here a littleH2191, there a littleH2191: that they might go, and fall backwardH268, and beH1961 brokenH7665, and snared, and takenH3920.
14ThereforeH3651 hearH8085 the wordH1697 of Jehovah, ye scornful menH376, that ruleH4910 this peopleH5971 which is in JerusalemH3389.
15For ye have saidH559, We have madeH6213 a covenantH1285 with deathH4194, and with SheolH7585 have we madeH6213 an agreement; when the overflowingH7857 scourge shall passH5674 through, it shall not comeH935 unto us; for we have madeH6213 liesH8267 our refugeH4268, and under falsehoodH8267 have we hidH5641 ourselves.
16ThereforeH3651 thusH3541 saith the LordH136 Jehovah: Behold, I lay for foundation in ZionH6726 a stoneH68, a tried stoneH68, a preciousH3368 corner-stone, a sure foundation: he that trusteth shall not make haste.
17And I will appointH7760 judgmentH4941 for a line, and righteousnessH6666 for a plummet; and the hailH1259 shall sweep away the refugeH4268 of liesH3577, and the watersH4325 shall overflowH7857 the hiding-place.
18And your covenantH1285 with deathH4194 shall beH1961 annulled, and your agreement with SheolH7585 shall not standH6965; when the overflowingH7857 scourgeH7752 shall passH5674 through, ye shall beH1961 trodden down by it.
19As it passeth through it shall takeH3947 you; for morningH1242 by morningH1242 shall it passH5674 through, by dayH3117 and by nightH3915; and it shall beH1961 terror onlyH7535 to understandH995 the reportH8052.
