‏ Isaiah 29:9-14



9 aBe delayed and horrified,
Blind yourselves and be blind;
They bbecome drunk, but not with wine,
They stagger, but not with intoxicating drink.

10 For the Lord has poured over you a spirit of deep csleep,
He has dshut your eyes--the prophets;
And He has covered your heads--the seers.

11 The entire vision will be to you like the words of a sealed
Or scroll
fbook, which, when they give it to the one who
Lit knows books
is literate, saying, “Please read this,” he will say, “I cannot, because it is sealed.”
12Then the
Or scroll
book will be given to the one who
Lit does not know books
is illiterate, saying, “Please read this.” And he will say, “I
Lit do not know books
cannot read.”

13 Then the Lord said,
Because kthis people approaches Me with their
Lit mouth
words
And honors Me with their lips,
But their heart is far away from Me,
And their
Lit fear of Me
reverence for Me
Lit is
consists of the commandment of men that is taught;

14 Therefore behold, I will once again deal omarvelously with this people, wondrously marvelous;
And pthe wisdom of their wise men will perish,
And the understanding of their men who have understanding will be concealed.”
