A Rebellious People

Now go, (A)write it before them on a tablet,
And note it on a scroll,
That it may be for time to come,
Forever and ever:
That (B)this is a rebellious people,
Lying children,
Children who will not hear the law of the Lord;
10 (C)Who say to the seers, “Do not see,”
And to the prophets, “Do not prophesy to us right things;
(D)Speak to us smooth things, prophesy deceits.
11 Get out of the way,
Turn aside from the path,
Cause the Holy One of Israel
To cease from before us.”

Now go, write it on a tablet with them,
    and inscribe it on a scroll,
that[a] it may be for the time to come,[b]
    forever, forever.
For it is a people of rebellion, deceitful children,
    children who are not willing to hear the instruction of Yahweh,
10 who say to those who do see, “You must not see!”
    and to the seers, “You must not see truth for us;
speak smooth things to us,
    see illusions,
11 turn aside from the way, turn aside from the path,
    put an end to the holy one of Israel from our face.”
