Woe to the rebellious children, saith the LORD,
That take counsel, but not of me
That cover with a covering, but not of my spirit
[Why?]
That they may add sin to sin
Go down into Egypt [look to the world for solutions]
Have not asked at my mouth
Lying
Will not hear the law of the LORD
[Ask their spiritual leaders to] speak unto us smooth things, [and] prophesy deceits
Cause the Holy One of Israel to cease from before us
Despise [God's] word
Trust in oppression and perverseness and
Stay [depend] thereon
[A people that say,] "No; for we will..."
(from Isaiah chapter 30)
Turn Again to The Lord
