New Century Version
14 So I will continue to amaze these people
by doing more and more miracles.
Their wise men will lose their wisdom;
their wise men will not be able to understand.”
Warnings About Other Nations
15 How terrible it will be for those who try
to hide things from the Lord
and who do their work in darkness.
They think no one will see them or know what they do.
16 You are confused.
You think the clay is equal to the potter.
You think that an object can tell the one who made it,
“You didn’t make me.”
This is like a pot telling its maker,
“You don’t know anything.”
Isaiah 29:14-16
New International Version
Isaiah 29:14-16
New International Version
14 Therefore once more I will astound these people
with wonder upon wonder;(A)
the wisdom of the wise(B) will perish,
the intelligence of the intelligent will vanish.(C)”
15 Woe to those who go to great depths
to hide(D) their plans from the Lord,
who do their work in darkness and think,
“Who sees us?(E) Who will know?”(F)
16 You turn things upside down,
as if the potter were thought to be like the clay!(G)
Shall what is formed say to the one who formed(H) it,
“You did not make me”?
Can the pot say to the potter,(I)
“You know nothing”?(J)
