Isaiah 8:20-22

Contemporary English Version

²⁰ what it should do.”

None of those who talk like that will live to see the light of day! ²¹ They will go around in great pain and will become so hungry that they will angrily curse their king and their gods. And when they try to find help in heaven ²² and on earth, they will find only trouble and darkness, terrible trouble and deepest darkness.
