KJV ORIGINAL
Mischief shall come upon mischief, and rumour shall be upon rumour; then shall they seek a vision of the prophet; but the law shall perish from the priest, and counsel from the ancients.
Close to the original. Clear modern English.
✦ MADE SIMPLE
Disaster after disaster will hit, and wild rumors will spread everywhere. People will desperately run to prophets looking for answers, but the priests won't have God's guidance anymore, and the wise elders will have nothing helpful to say.
⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE
When everything falls apart, even the people you'd normally turn to for wisdom won't have answers.
