Isaiah 9:14-16

Christian Standard Bible

¹⁴ So the Lord cut off Israel’s head and tail,^(A)
palm branch and reed in a single day.
¹⁵ The head is the elder, the honored one;^(B)
the tail is the prophet, the one teaching lies.^(C)
16 The leaders of the people mislead them,
and those they mislead are swallowed up.^[a]
