Isaiah 9:16-18

English Standard Version

¹⁶ for those who guide this people have been leading them astray,
    and those who are guided by them are swallowed up.
¹⁷ Therefore the Lord does not ^(A)rejoice over their young men,
    and has no compassion on their fatherless and widows;
for everyone is ^(B)godless and an evildoer,
    and every mouth speaks ^(C)folly.^[a]
(D)For all this his anger has not turned away,
    and his hand is stretched out still.
