Isaiah 29:13-15
Evangelical Heritage Version
Isaiah 29:13-15
Evangelical Heritage Version
13 The Lord says:
These people approach me with their words,
and they honor me with their lips,
but their hearts are far from me.
Their worship of me is nothing but commandments taught by men.[a]
14 So watch how I will continue to amaze these people
with amazing, extraordinary things.
The wisdom of the wise will perish,
and the intelligence of the intelligent will be hidden.
Hope for the Future
15 Woe to those who try to hide their plans from the Lord.
Their deeds are done in darkness,
and they think that no one sees them
or knows what they are doing.

Isaiah 29:13-15
New International Version
13 The Lord says:
“These people(A) come near to me with their mouth
and honor me with their lips,(B)
but their hearts are far from me.(C)
Their worship of me
is based on merely human rules they have been taught.[a](D)
14 Therefore once more I will astound these people
with wonder upon wonder;(E)
the wisdom of the wise(F) will perish,
the intelligence of the intelligent will vanish.(G)”
15 Woe to those who go to great depths
to hide(H) their plans from the Lord,
who do their work in darkness and think,
“Who sees us?(I) Who will know?”(J)
