Isaiah:29:13-16
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Wherefore the Lord said ,
Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth ,
and with their lips do honour me ,
but have removed their heart far from me ,
and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men :
*
Therefore ,
behold ,
I will proceed to do a marvellous work among this people ,
even a marvellous work and a wonder :
for the wisdom of their wise men shall perish ,
and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid .
*
Woe unto them that seek deep to hide their counsel from the LORD ,
and their works are in the dark ,
and they say ,
Who seeth us ?
and who knoweth us ?
*
Surely your turning of things upside down shall be esteemed as the potter '
s clay :
for shall the work say of him that made it ,
He made me not ?
or shall the thing framed say of him that framed it ,
He had no understanding ?
