Isaiah 28:22-24

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

²² Now therefore do not be scoffers, lest the bands which bind you be made strong; for a decree of destruction have I heard from the Lord God of hosts upon the whole land and the whole earth.

²³ Give ear and hear my [Isaiah’s] voice; listen and hear my words.

²⁴ Does he who plows for sowing plow continually? Does he continue to plow and harrow the ground after it is smooth?
