Isaiah 9:15-17
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
15 the elder and honored man is the head,
and the prophet who teaches lies is the tail;
16 for those who lead this people lead them astray,
and those who are led by them are swallowed up.
17 Therefore the Lord does not rejoice over their young men,
and has no compassion on their fatherless and widows;
for every one is godless and an evildoer,
and every mouth speaks folly.
For all this his anger is not turned away
and his hand is stretched out still.
Isaiah 9:15-17
New International Version
15 the elders(A) and dignitaries(B) are the head,
the prophets(C) who teach lies(D) are the tail.
16 Those who guide(E) this people mislead them,
and those who are guided are led astray.(F)
17 Therefore the Lord will take no pleasure in the young men,(G)
nor will he pity(H) the fatherless and widows,
for everyone is ungodly(I) and wicked,(J)
every mouth speaks folly.(K)
Yet for all this, his anger is not turned away,
his hand is still upraised.(L)
