Isaiah 8:20-22

The Voice

²⁰ Go to God’s teaching and His testimony to guide your thoughts and behavior! If any response disagrees with the word of God, then it’s muddling and wrong and not the least bit illuminating. ²¹ It leaves the people bedraggled and desperate, drifting here and there. In their hunger, the people are bound to be infuriated and curse their king and God. They’ll look up to the heavens ²² and down to the earth, yet see nothing but trouble, gloom, anguish, and darkness. They will be driven out into the darkness.
