Isaiah 28:11-13
Names of God Bible
11 Yahweh will speak to these people.
He will mock them by speaking in a foreign language.
12 He will say to them,
“This is a place for comfort.
This is a place of rest for those who are tired.
This is a place for them to rest.”
But they weren’t willing to listen.
13 Yahweh speaks utter nonsense to them.
That is why they will fall backwards.
That is why they will be hurt, trapped, and captured.
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)
