Isaiah 28:11–12

For by people of strange lips

and with a foreign tongue

the Lord will speak to this people,

to whom he has said,

“This is rest;

give rest to the weary;

and this is repose”;

yet they would not hear.

Very well then, with foreign lips and strange tongues

God will speak to this people,

to whom he said,

“This is the resting place, let the weary rest”;

and, “This is the place of repose”—

but they would not listen.

For he will speak to this people

with stammering speech

and in a foreign language.

He had said to them,

“This is the place of rest;

let the weary rest;

this is the place of repose.”

But they would not listen.

So now God will have to speak to his people

through foreign oppressors who speak a strange language!

God has told his people,

“Here is a place of rest;

let the weary rest here.

This is a place of quiet rest.”

But they would not listen.

For he will speak with stammering and another tongue to this people, to whom he has said,

“This is rest; give rest to the weary;

and this is repose”; yet they were not willing to hear.

For with stammering lips and another tongue

Will he speak to this people.

To whom he said,

This is the rest wherewith ye may cause the weary to rest;

And this is the refreshing: yet they would not hear.
