Isaiah 28:7-13 - Isaiah And The Drunken Prophets Of Judah

⁷ But as for these, With wine, do they reel, and With strong drink, do they stagger, - Priest and prophet, reel with strong drink They are swallowed up through wine They stagger through strong drink, They reel in prophetic vision, They totter in pronouncing judgment. ⁸ For, all tables, are full of filthy vomit, - There is no place! ⁹ Whom, would he teach knowledge? And, whom, would he cause to understand the message? Them who are weaned from the milk? taken from the breasts? ¹⁰ For it is - Precept upon precept, precept upon precept, Line upon line, line upon line, - A little here a little there. ¹¹ For, with a jabbering lip, and with an alien tongue, must he speak unto this people! ¹² To whom he said - This, is the rest - give ye rest to the weary, and This, is the quietness, - But they were unwilling to hear.

¹³ So the word of Yahweh must be to them - Precept upon precept, precept upon precept, Line upon line, line upon line, A little here, a little there, - That they may go and fall backward and be torn and snared and captured.
