Isaiah 56:8-10

New Living Translation

⁸For the Sovereign Lord,
who brings back the outcasts of Israel, says:
I will bring others, too,
besides my people Israel.”

Sinful Leaders Condemned

⁹Come, wild animals of the field!
    Come, wild animals of the forest!
    Come and devour my people!
¹⁰For the leaders of my people—
    the Lord’s watchmen, his shepherds—
    are blind and ignorant.
They are like silent watchdogs
    that give no warning when danger comes.
They love to lie around, sleeping and dreaming.
