Isaiah 28:9-12
New American Standard Bible 1995
9 “To (A)whom would He teach knowledge,
And to whom would He interpret the message?
Those just (B)weaned from milk?
Those just taken from the breast?
10 “For He says,
‘[a](C)Order on order, order on order,
Line on line, line on line,
A little here, a little there.’”
11 Indeed, He will speak to this people
Through (D)stammering lips and a foreign tongue,
12 He who said to them, “Here is (E)rest, give rest to the weary,”
And, “Here is repose,” but they would not listen.

3 O Lord, do not (A)Your eyes look for [a]truth?
You have (B)smitten them,
But they did not [b]weaken;
You have consumed them,
But they (C)refused to take correction.
They have (D)made their faces harder than rock;
They have refused to repent.

Jeremiah 6:8-10
New American Standard Bible 1995
8 “(A)Be warned, O Jerusalem,
Or [a](B)I shall be alienated from you,
And make you a desolation,
A land not inhabited.”
9 Thus says the Lord of hosts,
“They will (C)thoroughly glean as the vine the (D)remnant of Israel;
Pass your hand again like a grape gatherer
Over the branches.”
10 To whom shall I speak and give warning
That they may hear?
Behold, their (E)ears are [b]closed
And they cannot listen.
Behold, (F)the word of the Lord has become a reproach to them;
They have no delight in it.
