Isaiah 9:16 WEB

¹⁴  Therefore Yahweh will cut off from Israel head and tail, palm-branch and rush, in one day.

¹⁵  The elder and the honorable man, he is the head; and the prophet who teaches lies, he is the tail.

¹⁶  For those who lead this people cause them to err; and those who are led of them are destroyed.

¹⁷  Therefore the Lord will not rejoice over their young men, neither will he have compassion on their fatherless and widows; for everyone is profane and an evil-doer, and every mouth speaks folly. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.

¹⁸  For wickedness burns as the fire; it devours the briers and thorns; yes, it kindles in the thickets of the forest, and they roll upward in a column of smoke.
