Isaiah 9:15-17

World English Bible

¹⁵ The elder and the honorable man is the head,
    and the prophet who teaches lies is the tail.
¹⁶ For those who lead this people lead them astray;
    and those who are led by them are destroyed.
¹⁷ Therefore the Lord will not rejoice over their young men,
    neither will he have compassion on their fatherless and widows;
for everyone is profane and an evildoer,
    and every mouth speaks folly.
For all this his anger is not turned away,
    but his hand is stretched out still.
