Isaiah 30:10

A Rebellious People

⁹
For this is a rebellious people, lying sons,
Sons who refuse to listen to
The law and instruction of the Lord;
¹⁰ 
Who say to the seers, “You must not see visions from God”;
And to the prophets, “You must not prophesy to us what is right!
Speak to us pleasant things and smooth words,
Prophesy [deceitful] illusions [that we will enjoy].
¹¹
“Get out of the [true] way, turn aside from the path [of God],
Stop bothering us with the Holy One of Israel.”
