Isaiah 30:13-15

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹³     your guilt will be like a crack in a wall,
    bulging out and about to collapse.
    It will suddenly fall without warning.
¹⁴     It will crash like a broken clay pot,
    smashed to pieces so violently that not one useful piece will be left,
    not even a piece good enough to pick up a coal from the hearth
    or to ladle water from a cistern.
¹⁵ This is what the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel, says:
    If you repent and wait quietly, you will be saved.
    Your strength will depend on quietness and trust.
But you refused.
