The word of the vision become like a sealed book, and of the potter
봉한 책의 말 같은 묵시와 토기장이를 두고 이르는 말
Isaiah 29:9–16: the text says, “Pause and wonder! Blind yourselves and be blind! They are drunken, but not with wine; they stagger, but not with strong drink. For the LORD has poured out on you a spirit of deep sleep, and has closed your eyes, the prophets; and he has covered your heads, the seers. All vision has become to you like the words of a book that is sealed, which men deliver to one who is educated, saying, ‘Read this, please;’ and he says, ‘I can’t, for it is sealed;’ and the book is delivered to one who is not educated, saying, ‘Read this, please;’ and he says, ‘I can’t read.’” The Lord said, “Because this people draws near with their mouth and honors me with their lips, but they have removed their heart far from me, and their fear of me is a commandment of men which has been taught; therefore, behold, I will proceed to do a marvelous work among this people, even a marvelous work and a wonder; and the wisdom of their wise men will perish, and the understanding of their prudent men will be hidden.” The text goes on, “Woe to those who deeply hide their counsel from the LORD, and whose deeds are in the dark, and who say, ‘Who sees us?’ and ‘Who knows us?’ You turn things upside down! Should the potter be thought to be like clay, that the thing made should say about him who made it, ‘He didn’t make me;’ or the thing formed say of him who formed it, ‘He has no understanding’?” The Korean Revised Version reads 모든 묵시가, every vision, at 29:11, and opens 29:16 with 너희의 패리함이 심하도다, where WEB reads “You turn things upside down!”

9Pause and wonder! Blind yourselves and be blind! They are drunken, but not with wine; they stagger, but not with strong drink.
10For the LORD has poured out on you a spirit of deep sleep, and has closed your eyes, the prophets; and he has covered your heads, the seers.
11All vision has become to you like the words of a book that is sealed, which men deliver to one who is educated, saying, “Read this, please;” and he says, “I can’t, for it is sealed;”
12and the book is delivered to one who is not educated, saying, “Read this, please;” and he says, “I can’t read.”
13The Lord said, “Because this people draws near with their mouth and honors me with their lips, but they have removed their heart far from me, and their fear of me is a commandment of men which has been taught;
14therefore, behold, I will proceed to do a marvelous work among this people, even a marvelous work and a wonder; and the wisdom of their wise men will perish, and the understanding of their prudent men will be hidden.”
15Woe to those who deeply hide their counsel from the LORD, and whose deeds are in the dark, and who say, “Who sees us?” and “Who knows us?”
16You turn things upside down! Should the potter be thought to be like clay, that the thing made should say about him who made it, “He didn’t make me;” or the thing formed say of him who formed it, “He has no understanding”?
