Isaiah 9:14-16

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹⁴ Therefore the Lord will cut off from Israel head and tail [the highest and the lowest]—[high] palm branch and [low] rush in one day;

¹⁵ The elderly and honored man, he is the head; and the prophet who teaches lies, he is the tail.

¹⁶ For they who lead this people cause them to err, and they who are led [astray] by them are swallowed up (destroyed).
