Isaiah 29:15-17

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁵ Woe to you that are deep of heart, to hide your counsel from the Lord: and their works are in the dark, and they say: Who seeth us, and who knoweth us?

¹⁶ This thought of yours is perverse: as if the clay should think against the potter, and the work should say to the maker thereof: Thou madest me not: or the thing framed should say to him that fashioned it: Thou understandest not.

¹⁷ Is it not yet a very little while, and Libanus shall be turned into charmel, and charmel shall be esteemed as a forest?
