Isaiah 28:11-13
Contemporary English Version

11 (A) So, the Lord will speak
    to his people
in strange sounds
    and foreign languages.[a]
12 He promised you
perfect peace and rest,
    but you refused to listen.
13 Now his message to you
will be senseless sound
    after senseless sound.[b]
Then you will fall backwards,
    injured and trapped.
