Isaiah 9:13-15

English Standard Version

¹³ The people ^(A)did not turn to him who struck them,
    nor inquire of the Lord of hosts.
¹⁴ So the Lord cut off from Israel ^(B)head and tail,
    palm branch and reed in one day—
^15 (C)the elder and honored man is the head,
    and ^(D)the prophet who teaches lies is the tail;
