23:028:008 For all tables are full of vomit and filthiness, so that there is no place clean.
23:028:009 Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine? them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts.
23:028:010 For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line
upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:
23:028:011 For with stammering lips and another tongue will he speak to
this people.
23:028:012 To whom he said, This is the rest wherewith ye may cause the weary to rest; and this is the refreshing: yet they would not hear.
23:028:013 But the word of the LORD was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.
23:028:014 Wherefore hear the word of the LORD, ye scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem.
23:028:015 Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves:
23:028:016 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a
foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a
sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.
23:028:017 Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the
plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and
the waters shall overflow the hiding place.
