Isaiah 30:1 in 6 English translations. Each links through to the full chapter for context.

New International Version (NIV)

1“Woe to the obstinate children,”

declares the Lord,

“to those who carry out plans that are not mine,

forming an alliance, but not by my Spirit,

heaping sin upon sin;

1“Woe to the rebellious children,” declares the Lord,

“Who execute a plan, but not Mine,

And 30:1 Lit pour out a drink offeringmake an alliance, but not of My Spirit,

In order to add sin to sin;

1“Woe to the rebellious children,” declares the Lord,

“Who execute a plan, but not Mine,

And make an alliance, but not of My Spirit,

In order to add sin to sin;

1“Woe (judgment is coming) to the rebellious children,” declares the Lord,

“Who carry out a plan, but not Mine,

And make an alliance [by pouring out a libation], but not of My Spirit,

In order to add sin to sin;

1“Woe to the rebellious children,”

declares the Lord,

“to those who carry out a plan that is not Mine,

who form an alliance, but against My will,

heaping up sin upon sin.

1“How terrible it will be for these stubborn children of mine!”

announces the Lord.

“How terrible for those who carry out plans that did not come from me!

Their agreement with Egypt did not come from my Spirit.

So they pile up one sin on top of another.
