Isaiah 28:11-13
Holman Christian Standard Bible
11 So He will speak to this people
with stammering speech
and in a foreign language.(A)
12 He had said to them:
“This is the place of rest,
let the weary rest;(B)
this is the place of repose.”
But they would not listen.
13 Then the word of the Lord came to them:
“Law after law, law after law,
line after line, line after line,
a little here, a little there,”[a][b]
so they go stumbling backward,
to be broken, trapped, and captured.(C)
