Isaiah 28:13-15
New Life Version
13 So the Word of the Lord to them will be, “Law on law, law on law, rule on rule, rule on rule, a little here, a little there,” that they may go and fall back, be broken, trapped, and taken away by those who hate them.
A Stone of Great Worth in Jerusalem
14 So hear the Word of the Lord, you who laugh at the truth, who rule the people in Jerusalem! 15 You have said, “We have made an agreement with death. With the place of the dead we have made an agreement. The destroying flood will not touch us when it passes by. We have made lies our safe place. We have hidden ourselves with what is false.”

Isaiah 28:13-15
New International Version
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(A)—
so that as they go they will fall backward;
they will be injured(B) and snared and captured.(C)
14 Therefore hear the word of the Lord,(D) you scoffers(E)
who rule this people in Jerusalem.
15 You boast, “We have entered into a covenant with death,(F)
with the realm of the dead we have made an agreement.
When an overwhelming scourge sweeps by,(G)
it cannot touch us,
for we have made a lie(H) our refuge
and falsehood[a] our hiding place.(I)”
