Isaiah 29:9-16

Stay
<04102> (8697)
yourselves, and wonder
<08539> (8798)_;
cry ye out
<08173> (8697)_,
and cry
<08173> (8798)_:
they are drunken
<07937> (8804)_,
but not with wine
<03196>_;
they stagger
<05128> (8804)_,
but not with strong drink
<07941>_.
{cry ye...: or, take your pleasure, and riot}
For the LORD
<03068>
hath poured out
<05258> (8804)
upon you the spirit
<07307>
of deep sleep
<08639>_,
and hath closed
<06105> (8762)
your eyes
<05869>_:
the prophets
<05030>
and your rulers
<07218>_,
the seers
<02374>
hath he covered
<03680> (8765)_.
{rulers: Heb. heads}
And the vision
<02380>
of all is become unto you as the words
<01697>
of a book
<05612>
that is sealed
<02856> (8803)_,
which [men] deliver
<05414> (8799)
to one that is learned
<03045> (8802)_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Read
<07121> (8798)
this, I pray thee: and he saith
<0559> (8804)_,
I cannot
<03201> (8799)_;
for it [is] sealed
<02856> (8803)_:
{book: or, letter}
And the book
<05612>
is delivered
<05414> (8738)
to him that is not learned
<03045> (8804) <05612>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Read
<07121> (8798)
this, I pray thee: and he saith
<0559> (8804)_,
I am not learned
<03045> (8804)_.
Wherefore the Lord
<0136>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Forasmuch
<03282>
as this people
<05971>
draw near
<05066> (8738)
[me] with their mouth
<06310>_,
and with their lips
<08193>
do honour
<03513> (8765)
me, but have removed
<07368> (0)
their heart
<03820>
far
<07368> (8765)
from me, and their fear
<03374>
toward me is taught
<03925> (8794)
by the precept
<04687>
of men
<0582>_:
Therefore, behold, I will proceed
<03254> (8802)
to do a marvellous work
<06381> (8687)
among this people
<05971>_,
[even] a marvellous work
<06381> (8687)
and a wonder
<06382>_:
for the wisdom
<02451>
of their wise
<02450>
[men] shall perish
<06> (8804)_,
and the understanding
<0998>
of their prudent
<0995> (8737)
[men] shall be hid
<05641> (8691)_.
{proceed: Heb. add}
Woe
<01945>
unto them that seek deep
<06009> (8688)
to hide
<05641> (8687)
their counsel
<06098>
from the LORD
<03068>_,
and their works
<04639>
are in the dark
<04285>_,
and they say
<0559> (8799)_,
Who seeth
<07200> (8802)
us? and who knoweth
<03045> (8802)
us?
Surely your turning of things upside down
<02017> (8800)
shall be esteemed
<02803> (8735)
as the potter's
<03335> (8802)
clay
<02563>_:
for shall the work
<04639>
say
<0559> (8799)
of him that made
<06213> (8802)
it, He made
<06213> (8804)
me not? or shall the thing framed
<03336>
say
<0559> (8804)
of him that framed
<03335> (8802)
it, He had no understanding
<0995> (8689)_?
