Isaiah 30:13-15
New Catholic Bible
13 this guilt of yours will become for you
like a crack appearing in a high wall
that bulges out and continues to widen
until suddenly, in an instant,
that wall will come hurtling to the ground.
14 It will crash and break like an earthenware pot,
shattered so completely
that among its fragments not a single shard can be found
to remove an ember from the hearth
or to scoop out water from a cistern.
15 For thus says the Lord God,
the Holy One of Israel:
Your salvation depends upon repentance and tranquility
and your strength upon quiet trust.
But you would have none of it.
