Isaiah 9:15-17

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁵ The aged and honourable, he is the head: and the prophet that teacheth lies, he is the tail.

¹⁶ And they that call this people blessed, shall cause them to err: and they that are called blessed, shall be thrown down headlong.

¹⁷ Therefore the Lord shall have no joy in their young men: neither shall he have mercy on their fatherless, and widows: for every one is a hypocrite and wicked, and every mouth hath spoken folly. For all this his indignation is not turned away, but his bend is stretched out still.
