Isaiah 56:10-12

International Children’s Bible

¹⁰ The leaders who are to guard the people are blind.
    They don’t know what they are doing.
All of them are like quiet dogs.
    They don’t know how to bark.
They lie down and dream.
    They love to sleep.
¹¹ They are like hungry dogs.
    They are never satisfied.
They are like shepherds
    who don’t know what they are doing.
They each have gone their own way.
    All they want to do is satisfy themselves.
¹² They say, “Come, let’s drink some wine.
    Let’s drink all the beer we want.
And tomorrow we will do this again.
    Or, maybe we will have even a better time.”
