9tWhom shall he teach knowledge?
And whom shall he make to understand doctrine?
uThem that are weaned from the milk,
And drawn from the breasts.
10For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept;
vLine upon line, line upon line;
Here a little, and there a little:
11For wwith xstammering lips and another tongue
Will he speak to this people.

ESVEnglish Standard Version
“To whom will he teach knowledge,
and to whom will he explain the message?
Those who are weaned from the milk,
those taken from the breast?
For it is precept upon precept, precept upon precept,
line upon line, line upon line,
here a little, there a little.”
For by people of strange lips
and with a foreign tongue
the Lord will speak to this people,

NIVNew International Version (2011)
“Who is it he is trying to teach?
To whom is he explaining his message?
To children weaned from their milk,
to those just taken from the breast?
For it is:
Do this, do that,
a rule for this, a rule for that;
a little here, a little there.”
Very well then, with foreign lips and strange tongues
God will speak to this people,

CSBChristian Standard Bible
Who is he trying to teach?
Who is he trying to instruct?
Infants just weaned from milk?
Babies removed from the breast?
“Law after law, law after law,
line after line, line after line,
a little here, a little there.”
For he will speak to this people
with stammering speech
and in a foreign language.

NLTNew Living Translation
“Who does the Lord think we are?” they ask.
“Why does he speak to us like this?
Are we little children,
just recently weaned?
He tells us everything over and over—
one line at a time,
one line at a time,
a little here,
and a little there!”
So now God will have to speak to his people
through foreign oppressors who speak a strange language!

To whom will he teach knowledge,
and to whom will he explain the message?
Those who are weaned from milk,
those taken from the breast?
For it is blah-blah upon blah-blah,
blah-blah upon blah-blah,
gah-gah upon gah-gah,
gah-gah upon gah-gah,
a little here, a little there.
For he will speak with stammering and another tongue to this people,

Whom shall he teach knowledge?
And whom shall he make to understand doctrine?
Them that are weaned from the milk,
And drawn from the breasts.
For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept;
Line upon line, line upon line;
Here a little, and there a little:
For with stammering lips and another tongue
Will he speak to this people.
