Isaiah 47:15

Context

47:15 They will disappoint you, 1 

those you have so faithfully dealt with since your youth. 2 

Each strays off in his own direction, 3 

leaving no one to rescue you.”

Isaiah 28:7

Context

28:7 Even these men 4  stagger because of wine,

they stumble around because of beer –

priests and prophets stagger because of beer,

they are confused 5  because of wine,

they stumble around because of beer;

they stagger while seeing prophetic visions, 6 

they totter while making legal decisions. 7 

Isaiah 16:8

Context

16:8 For the fields of Heshbon are dried up,

as well as the vines of Sibmah.

The rulers of the nations trample all over its vines,

which reach Jazer and spread to the desert;

their shoots spread out and cross the sea.
