Isaiah 30:12-14

New International Reader's Version

“You have turned your backs on what I have said.
    You have depended on telling people lies.
    You have crushed others.
¹³ Those sins are like cracks in a high wall.
    They get bigger and bigger.
Suddenly the wall breaks apart.
    Then it quickly falls down.
¹⁴ It breaks into small pieces like a clay pot.
    It breaks up completely.
Not one piece is left big enough
    for taking coals from a fireplace.
    Not one piece is left for dipping water out of a well.”
