Isaiah 28:12

Provide security for the one who is exhausted!

This is where rest can be found.” ² 

But they refused to listen.

30:9 For these are rebellious people –

they are lying children,

children unwilling to obey the Lord’s law. ³

[28:12]  ² sn This message encapsulates the Lord’s invitation to his people to find security in his protection and blessing.

[30:9]  ³ tn Or perhaps, “instruction” (so NASB, NIV, NRSV); NCV, TEV “teachings.”
