Isaiah 9:13-17
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
13 The people did not turn to him who struck them
or seek the Lord of hosts.(A)
14 So the Lord cut off from Israel head and tail,
palm branch and reed in one day—(B)
15 elders and dignitaries are the head,
and prophets who teach lies are the tail,(C)
16 for those who led this people led them astray,
and those who were led by them were left in confusion.(D)
17 That is why the Lord did not have pity on[a] their young people
or compassion on their orphans and widows,
for everyone was godless and an evildoer,
and every mouth spoke folly.
For all this his anger has not turned away;
his hand is stretched out still.(E)

Isaiah 9:13-17
New Living Translation
13 For after all this punishment, the people will still not repent.
They will not seek the Lord of Heaven’s Armies.
14 Therefore, in a single day the Lord will destroy both the head and the tail,
the noble palm branch and the lowly reed.
15 The leaders of Israel are the head,
and the lying prophets are the tail.
16 For the leaders of the people have misled them.
They have led them down the path of destruction.
17 That is why the Lord takes no pleasure in the young men
and shows no mercy even to the widows and orphans.
For they are all wicked hypocrites,
and they all speak foolishness.
But even then the Lord’s anger will not be satisfied.
His fist is still poised to strike.
