Isaiah 28:7-13 ▼

7 Even these stagger because of wine and stumble under the influence of beer: Priest and prophet stagger because of beer. They are confused by wine. They stumble because of beer. They are muddled in their visions. They stumble in their judgments.

8 Indeed, all their tables are covered with vomit; there is no place without a stench.

9 Who is he trying to teach? Who is he trying to instruct? Infants just weaned from milk? Babies removed from the breast?

10 “Law after law, law after law, line after line, line after line, a little here, a little there.”

11 For he will speak to this people with stammering speech and in a foreign language.

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

13 The word of the LORD will come to them: “Law after law, law after law, line after line, line after line, a little here, a little there,” so they go stumbling backward, to be broken, trapped, and captured.
