12 And when they give the book to one who cannot read, saying, “Read this,” he says, “I cannot read.”

13 And the Lord said:
“Because (A)this people (B)draw near with their mouth
    and honor me with their lips,
    while their hearts are far from me,
and their fear of me is a commandment taught by men,
14 therefore, behold, (C)I will again
    do wonderful things with this people,
    with wonder upon wonder;
and (D)the wisdom of their wise men shall perish,
    and the discernment of their discerning men shall be hidden.”
