New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
5 Thus says the Lord concerning the prophets
who lead my people astray,
who cry “Peace”
when they have something to eat
but declare war against those
who put nothing into their mouths.(A)

and darkness to you, without revelation.
The sun shall go down upon the prophets,
and the day shall be black over them;(B)

and the diviners put to shame;
they shall all cover their lips,
for there is no answer from God.(C)

yet a hunter’s snare is on all his ways
and hostility in the house of his God.(B)

9 My hand will be against the prophets who see false visions and utter lying divinations; they shall not be in the council of my people nor be enrolled in the register of the house of Israel, nor shall they enter the land of Israel, and you shall know that I am the Lord God.(A) 10 Because, in truth, because they have misled my people, saying, “Peace,” when there is no peace, and because, when the people build a flimsy wall, these prophets[a] smear whitewash on it.(B) 11 Say to those who smear whitewash on it that it shall fall. There will be a deluge of rain,[b] great hailstones will fall, and a stormy wind will break out.(C) 12 When the wall falls, will it not be said to you, “Where is the whitewash you smeared on it?” 13 Therefore thus says the Lord God: In my wrath I will make a stormy wind break out, and in my anger there shall be a deluge of rain and hailstones in wrath to destroy it. 14 I will break down the wall that you have smeared with whitewash and bring it to the ground, so that its foundation will be laid bare; when the city falls, you shall perish within it, and you shall know that I am the Lord.(D) 15 Thus I will spend my wrath upon the wall and upon those who have smeared it with whitewash, and I will say to you, “The wall is no more, nor those who smeared it— 16 the prophets of Israel who prophesied concerning Jerusalem and saw visions of peace for it when there was no peace, says the Lord God.”(E)

10 Therefore I will give their wives to others
and their fields to conquerors,
because from the least to the greatest
everyone is greedy for unjust gain;
from prophet to priest,
everyone deals falsely.(A)
11 They have treated the wound of the daughter of my people carelessly,
saying, “Peace, peace,”
when there is no peace.(B)
12 They acted shamefully; they committed abomination,
yet they were not at all ashamed;
they did not know how to blush.
Therefore they shall fall among those who fall;
at the time when I punish them, they shall be overthrown,
says the Lord.(C)

with which I dismissed her?

to whom I have sold you?
No, because of your sins you were sold,
and for your transgressions your mother was dismissed.(A)
Isaiah 9:13-17
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
13 The people did not turn to him who struck them
or seek the Lord of hosts.(A)
14 So the Lord cut off from Israel head and tail,
palm branch and reed in one day—(B)
15 elders and dignitaries are the head,
and prophets who teach lies are the tail,(C)
16 for those who led this people led them astray,
and those who were led by them were left in confusion.(D)
17 That is why the Lord did not have pity on[a] their young people
or compassion on their orphans and widows,
for everyone was godless and an evildoer,
and every mouth spoke folly.
For all this his anger has not turned away;
his hand is stretched out still.(E)
