Isaiah 28:12
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
to whom He has said: “This is the place of rest, let the weary rest; this is the place of repose.” But they would not listen.
In context
10 For they hear: “Order on order, order on order, line on line, line on line; a little here, a little there.”
11 Indeed, with mocking lips and foreign tongues, He will speak to this people
12 to whom He has said: “This is the place of rest, let the weary rest; this is the place of repose.” But they would not listen.
13 Then the word of the LORD to them will become: “Order on order, order on order, line on line, line on line; a little here, a little there,” so that they will go stumbling backward and will be injured, ensnared, and captured.
14 Therefore hear the word of the LORD, O scoffers who rule this people in Jerusalem.
