Isaiah 9:16-18
English Standard Version
Isaiah 9:16-18
English Standard Version
16 for those who guide this people have been leading them astray,
and those who are guided by them are swallowed up.
17 Therefore the Lord does not (A)rejoice over their young men,
and has no compassion on their fatherless and widows;
for everyone is (B)godless and an evildoer,
and every mouth speaks (C)folly.[a]
(D)For all this his anger has not turned away,
and his hand is stretched out still.
18 For wickedness burns like (E)a fire;
it consumes briers and thorns;
it kindles the thickets of the forest,
and they roll upward in a column of smoke.
