Isaiah 30:8-10
The Voice
8 So, go on—write all this down on a tablet in their presence;

“Stop with your visions. We’ve had enough of them.”
They say to the prophets, “Tell us only what we’d like to hear;

children unwilling to listen to the Lord’s instruction.(F)
10 They say to the seers,(G)
“See no more visions(H)!”

Tell us pleasant things,(I)
