Isaiah 28:22-24

Expanded Bible

²² Now, ·you must not make fun of these things [do not mock; or stop your mocking],
    or the ·ropes [or chains; bonds] around you will become ·tighter [or heavier].
The Lord God ·All-Powerful [Almighty; of Heaven’s Armies; ^Tof hosts] has ·told me [decreed to me]
    how the whole ·earth [land] will be destroyed.

²³ Listen closely to ·what I tell you [my voice];
    ·listen carefully to [pay attention to; heed] what I say.
²⁴ ·A farmer does not [^LDoes the plower…?] plow his field all the time;
    ·he does not [^Ldoes he…?] go on working the soil.
