Isaiah 28:22-24

The Voice

²² So don’t keep laughing it off,
    or your chains will be made even stronger.
For I heard from the Lord, the Eternal, Commander of heavenly armies,
    that an absolute end has been determined for the whole earth.
²³ Pay attention! Listen well;
    take care to hear my words.
²⁴ Does a farmer constantly plow and turn the soil to plant his seed?
    No, of course not.
