Isaiah 30:10-21

Isaiah 30:10-21

[10] Which say  to the seers,  not; and to the prophets,  Prophesy  not unto us right things,  speak  unto us smooth things,  prophesy  deceits:  [11] Get you out  of the way,  turn aside  out of the path,  cause the Holy One  of Israel  to cease  from before  us. [12] Wherefore thus saith  the Holy One  of Israel,  Because ye despise  this word,  and trust  in oppression  and perverseness,  and stay  [13] Therefore this iniquity  shall be to you as a breach  ready to fall,  swelling out  in a high  wall,  whose breaking  cometh  suddenly  at an instant.  [14] And he shall break  it as the breaking  of the potters'  vessel  that is broken in pieces;  he shall not spare:  so that there shall not be found  in the bursting  of it a sherd  to take  fire  from the hearth,  or to take  water  withal out of the pit.  [15] For thus saith  the Lord  GOD,  the Holy One  of Israel;  In returning  and rest  shall ye be saved;  in quietness  and in confidence  shall be your strength:  and ye would  [16] But ye said,  No; for we will flee  upon horses;  therefore shall ye flee:  and, We will ride  upon the swift;  therefore shall they that pursue  you be swift.  [17] One  thousand  shall flee at  the rebuke  of one;  at  the rebuke  of five  shall ye flee:  till ye be left  as a beacon  upon the top  of a mountain,  and as an ensign  on an hill.  [18] And therefore will the LORD  wait,  that he may be gracious  unto you, and therefore will he be exalted,  that he may have mercy  upon you: for the LORD  is a God  of judgment:  blessed  are all they that wait  for him. [19] For the people  shall dwell  in Zion  at Jerusalem:  thou shalt weep  he will be very  unto thee at the voice  when he shall hear  it, he will answer  [20] And though the Lord  give  you the bread  of adversity,  and the water  of affliction,  yet shall not thy teachers  be removed into a corner  any more, but thine eyes  shall see  thy teachers:  [21] And thine ears  shall hear  a word  behind  thee, saying,  This is the way,  when ye turn to the right hand,  and when ye turn to the left.
