Isaiah 29:13-16

13Then the LordH136 saidH559, “BecauseH3282H3588 1thisH2088 peopleH5971 drawH5066 nearH5066 with their 2wordsH6310 And honorH3513 Me with their 3lipH8193 serviceH8193, But they removeH7368 their heartsH3820 farH7368 from Me, And their 4reverenceH3372 for Me 5consistsH1961 of 6traditionH4687H376 learnedH3925 by rote,14ThereforeH3651 beholdH2009, I will once againH3254 dealH6381 7marvelouslyH6381 with thisH2088 peopleH5971, wondrouslyH6381 marvelousH6381; And 8the wisdomH2451 of their wiseH2450 menH2450 will perishH6, And the discernmentH998 of their discerningH995 men will be concealedH5641.”

15WoeH1945 to those who deeplyH6009 9hideH5641 their 10plansH6098 from the LordH3068, And whose 11deedsH4639 are done in a darkH4285 placeH4285, And they sayH559, “12WhoH4310 seesH7200 us?” or “WhoH4310 knowsH3045 us?”16You turnH2016 things aroundH2016! Shall the potterH3335 be consideredH2803 13as equal with the clayH2563, That 14whatH4639 is madeH4639 would sayH559 to its makerH6213, “He did not makeH6213 me”; Or whatH3336 is formedH3335 sayH559 to him who formedH3335 it, “He has noH3808 understandingH995”?
