Isaiah 28:11-13
New Century Version
Isaiah 28:11-13
New Century Version
11 So the Lord will use strange words and foreign languages
to speak to these people.
12 God said to them,
“Here is a place of rest;
let the tired people come and rest.
This is the place of peace.”
But the people would not listen.
13 So the words of the Lord will be,
“A command here, a command there.
A rule here, a rule there.
A little lesson here, a little lesson there.”
They will fall back and be defeated;
they will be trapped and captured.

New International Version
Isaiah 28:11-13
New International Version
11 Very well then, with foreign lips and strange tongues(A)
God will speak to this people,(B)
12 to whom he said,
“This is the resting place, let the weary rest”;(C)
and, “This is the place of repose”—
but they would not listen.
13 So then, the word of the Lord to them will become:
Do this, do that,
a rule for this, a rule for that;
a little here, a little there(D)—
so that as they go they will fall backward;
they will be injured(E) and snared and captured.(F)
