Isaiah 9:16-18

World English Bible

¹⁶ For those who lead this people lead them astray;
    and those who are led by them are destroyed.
¹⁷ Therefore the Lord will not rejoice over their young men,
    neither will he have compassion on their fatherless and widows;
for everyone is profane and an evildoer,
    and every mouth speaks folly.
For all this his anger is not turned away,
    but his hand is stretched out still.
