Isaiah 29:14-16
Legacy Standard Bible
14 Therefore behold, I will once again deal (A)marvelously with this people, wondrously marvelous;
And (B)the wisdom of their wise men will perish,
And the discernment of their discerning men will be hidden.”
15 Woe to those who deeply (C)hide their counsel from Yahweh,
And whose (D)deeds are done in a dark place,
And they say, “(E)Who sees us?” or “Who knows us?”
16 You turn things around!
Shall the potter be considered [a]as equal with the clay,
That (F)what is made would say to its maker, “He did not make me”;
Or what is formed say to him who formed it, “He has no understanding”?
