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.

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)
