Isaiah 29:13-15
English Standard Version
13 And the Lord said:
“Because (A)this people (B)draw near with their mouth
and honor me with their lips,
while their hearts are far from me,
and their fear of me is a commandment taught by men,
14 therefore, behold, (C)I will again
do wonderful things with this people,
with wonder upon wonder;
and (D)the wisdom of their wise men shall perish,
and the discernment of their discerning men shall be hidden.”
15 Ah, (E)you who hide deep from the Lord your counsel,
whose deeds are (F)in the dark,
and who say, “Who sees us? Who knows us?”
Isaiah 29:13-15
New King James Version
13 Therefore the Lord said:
(A)“Inasmuch as these people draw near with their mouths
And honor Me (B)with their lips,
But have removed their hearts far from Me,
And their fear toward Me is taught by the commandment of men,
14 (C)Therefore, behold, I will again do a marvelous work
Among this people,
A marvelous work and a wonder;
(D)For the wisdom of their wise men shall perish,
And the understanding of their prudent men shall be hidden.”
15 (E)Woe to those who seek deep to hide their counsel far from the Lord,
And their works are in the dark;
(F)They say, “Who sees us?” and, “Who knows us?”
