Isaiah 29:14-16
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
14 therefore, behold, I will again
do marvelous things with this people,
wonderful and marvelous;
and the wisdom of their wise men shall perish,
and the discernment of their discerning men shall be hid.”
15 Woe to those who hide deep from the Lord their counsel,
whose deeds are in the dark,
and who say, “Who sees us? Who knows us?”
16 You turn things upside down!
Shall the potter be regarded as the clay;
that the thing made should say of its maker,
“He did not make me”;
or the thing formed say of him who formed it,
“He has no understanding”?
Isaiah 29:14-16
New International Version
14 Therefore once more I will astound these people
with wonder upon wonder;(A)
the wisdom of the wise(B) will perish,
the intelligence of the intelligent will vanish.(C)”
15 Woe to those who go to great depths
to hide(D) their plans from the Lord,
who do their work in darkness and think,
“Who sees us?(E) Who will know?”(F)
16 You turn things upside down,
as if the potter were thought to be like the clay!(G)
Shall what is formed say to the one who formed(H) it,
“You did not make me”?
Can the pot say to the potter,(I)
“You know nothing”?(J)
