Isaiah 28:12-14

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹² He said to them,
“This is the resting place.
Let the weary rest.
This is the place to be refreshed,”
but they would not listen.
¹³ That is why to them the word of the Lord will be:
    Law by law, law by law,
    rule by rule, rule by rule,^[a]
    a little here, a little there.
As a result they will try to walk,
but they will fall backwards.
They will be hurt, trapped, and taken.

¹⁴ So now, hear the word of the Lord, you scoffers,
who rule this people in Jerusalem.
