Isaiah 28:7-13 ▼

7 These also stagger from wine and stumble from strong drink: Priests and prophets reel from strong drink and are befuddled by wine. They stumble because of strong drink, muddled in their visions and stumbling in their judgments.

8 For all their tables are covered with vomit; there is not a place without filth.

9 Whom is He trying to teach? To whom is He explaining His message? To infants just weaned from milk? To babies removed from the breast?

10 For they hear: “Order on order, order on order, line on line, line on line; a little here, a little there.”

11 Indeed, with mocking lips and foreign tongues, He will speak to this people

12 to whom He has said: “This is the place of rest, let the weary rest; this is the place of repose.” But they would not listen.

13 Then the word of the LORD to them will become: “Order on order, order on order, line on line, line on line; a little here, a little there,” so that they will go stumbling backward and will be injured, ensnared, and captured.
