Isaiah 30:8-14
Lexham English Bible
8 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.
9 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.”
12 Therefore the holy one of Israel says this:
“Because you are rejecting this word
and you trust in oppression and cunning[c]
and you rely on it,
13 therefore this iniquity shall come for you like a breach about to fall,
bulging out on a high wall that breaks[d] suddenly, in an instant.
14 And he breaks it like a vessel of a potter[e] breaks,
that is crushed; he has no compassion,
and no potsherd is found among its fragments[f] to take fire[g] from the hearth,
or to skim[h] water from the cistern.”

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
A Rebellious People
8 Go now, write it before them on a tablet,
and inscribe it on a scroll,
so that it may be for the time to come
as a witness forever.(A)
9 For they are a rebellious people,
faithless children,
children who will not hear
the instruction of the Lord;(B)
10 who say to the seers, “Do not see,”
and to the prophets, “Do not prophesy to us what is right;
speak to us smooth things;
prophesy illusions;(C)
11 leave the way; turn aside from the path;
let us hear no more about the Holy One of Israel.”(D)
12 Therefore thus says the Holy One of Israel:
Because you reject this word
and put your trust in oppression and deceit
and rely on them,(E)
13 therefore this iniquity shall become for you
like a break in a high wall, bulging out and about to collapse,
whose crash comes suddenly, in an instant;(F)
14 its breaking is like that of a potter’s vessel
that is smashed so ruthlessly
that among its fragments not a sherd is found
for taking fire from the hearth
or dipping water out of the cistern.(G)
