10Who say to the seers, See not; and to the prophets, Do not give us word of what is true, but say false things to give us pleasure:
11Get out of the good way, turning from the right road; do not keep the Holy One of Israel before our minds.
12For this cause the Holy One of Israel says, Because you will not give ear to this word, and are looking for help in ways of deceit and evil, and are putting your hope in them:
13This sin will be to you like a crack in a high wall, causing its fall suddenly and in a minute.
14And he will let it be broken as a potter's vessel is broken: it will be smashed to bits without mercy; so that there will not be a bit in which one may take fire from the fireplace, or water from the spring.
15For the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, said, In quiet and rest is your salvation: peace and hope are your strength: but you would not have it so.
16Saying, No, for we will go in flight on horses; so you will certainly go in flight: and, We will go on the backs of quick-running beasts; so those who go after you will be quick-footed.
