Berean Standard Bible

“And whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear this command behind you: “This is the way. Walk in it.””

Isaiah 30:21

Save as image

Study note

Isaiah 30 rebukes Judah for seeking military help from Egypt instead of trusting the Lord. Yet the chapter turns to a promise of grace: God waits to be gracious and will answer his people when they cry out.
