Isaiah 28:9 Context
7¶ But they also haue erred through wine, and through strong drinke are out of the way: the priest and the prophet haue erred through strong drinke, they are swallowed vp of wine: they are out of the way through strong drinke, they erre in vision, they stumble in iudgement. 8For all tables are full of vomite and filthinesse, so that there is no place cleane. 9¶ Whome shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to vnderstand doctrine? them that are weaned from the milke, and drawen from the breasts. 10For precept must be vpon precept, precept vpon precept, line vpon line, line vpon line, here a litle, and there a litle. 11For with stammering lips and another tongue will he speake to this people.
