Isaiah 56:10-12
New International Reader's Version
10 Israel’s prophets are blind.
They don’t know the Lord.
All of them are like watchdogs that can’t even bark.
They just lie around and dream.
They love to sleep.
11 They are like dogs that love to eat.
They never get enough.
They are like shepherds who don’t have any understanding.
All of them do as they please.
They only look for what they can get for themselves.
12 “Come!” they shout. “Let’s get some wine!
Let’s drink all the beer we can!
Tomorrow we’ll do the same thing.
And that will be even better than today.”
Isaiah 56:10-12
New International Version
10 Israel’s watchmen(A) are blind,
they all lack knowledge;(B)
they are all mute dogs,
they cannot bark;
they lie around and dream,
they love to sleep.(C)
11 They are dogs with mighty appetites;
they never have enough.
They are shepherds(D) who lack understanding;(E)
they all turn to their own way,(F)
they seek their own gain.(G)
12 “Come,” each one cries, “let me get wine!(H)
Let us drink our fill of beer!
And tomorrow will be like today,
or even far better.”(I)
