¡Ay de los hijos rebeldes —declara el Señor — que ejecutan planes, pero no los míos, y hacen alianza, pero no según mi Espíritu, para añadir pecado sobre pecado!
AY de los hijos que se apartan, dice Jehov, para tomar consejo, y no de m; para cobijarse con cubierta, y no de mi espritu, aadiendo pecado pecado!
Ay de los hijos que se apartan, dice el SEOR, para hacer consejo, y no de m, para cubrirse con cobertura, y no por mi Espritu, aadiendo pecado a pecado!

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Woe to the rebellious children, saith the Lord,.... The Jews, who were, by national adoption, and by outward profession of religion, the "children" of God, but were apostates from him, had turned their backs upon him, deviated from his law, and departed from his worship and ordinances; and therefore a woe is pronounced against them, or they are called upon to consider of their evil ways, and return, that iniquity might not be their ruin:
that take counsel, but not of me; they met and consulted together about their safety, when in danger, but did not ask counsel of the Lord; they did not consult his word, nor his prophets, nor by Urim and Thummim, as in case of war they should more especially:
and that cover with a covering, but not of my spirit; they sought for a cover, a shelter, a protection from the enemy, but not from the Spirit of the Lord, in his word and prophets, who would have directed them to a more suitable and sufficient one. Kimchi understands this of their covert and secret counsels, which they laid deep, as they fancied, and sought to hide. The Targum of the former clause and this is,
"that take counsel, but not of my word; that consult a consultation, but do not ask of my prophets:''
that they may add sin to sin; the sins of consulting others, and of putting confidence in a creature, to their other sins of rebellion and apostasy: so wicked men, who are enemies in their minds, by wicked works, to God, and commit acts of hostility against him, and are in danger thereby of eternal ruin, do not consult the word and ministers of the Gospel, but flesh and blood, carnal sense and reason, and seek to cover themselves with the rags of their own righteousness, and not with the robe of Christ's righteousness, and garments of salvation, which the Spirit of God reveals and brings near; and so to their other sins they add that of trusting to their own righteousness, and not submitting to Christ's.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Wo, - (see the note at Isaiah 18:1).
To the rebellious children - To those whom he had nourished as children, and who had rebelled against him (see the note at Isaiah 1:23).
That take counsel, but not of me - They look to Egypt, and depend on a human arm.
And that cover with a covering - The idea here, according to our translation, is, that they seek protection or a covering from the impending calamity. Lowth renders this, ‘Who ratify covenants;’ supposing that the reference is to the fact that in ancient times compacts were formed by offering sacrifices, and by pouring out libations. The Hebrew, according to Lowth, means, ‘who pour out a libation.’ So the Septuagint renders it, Συνθήκας sunthēkas - ‘And thou hast made covenants.’ The Syriac renders it, ‘Who pour out libations.’ The Hebrew word נסך nâsak properly conveys the idea of pouring out, and is applied:
(1) to the act of pouring out wine as a drink offering, or as a libation to God Genesis 35:14; Exodus 30:9; 1 Chronicles 11:18; Hosea 9:4;
(2) to the act of pouring out oil, that is, to anointing kings and rulers Psalms 2:6; Daniel 11:8;
(3) to the act of pouring out melted metals, that is, to cast them Isaiah 40:19; Isaiah 44:10.
The word also may have a meaning kindred to סכך sâkak and denote “to cover,” as in Isaiah 25:7. Various derivatives from the word are rendered ‘to cover withal’ Numbers 4:7; ‘the covering’ Isaiah 28:20; ‘the web,’ that is, that which is woven for a covering Judges 16:13-14. The idea, however, which best suits the connection here is probably that suggested by Lowth, in accordance with the Septuagint, and the Syriac, and adopted by Rosenmuller, Gesenius, and others, “to make a libation;” that is, to ratify a covenant, or compact.
But not of my Spirit - It was not such as was suggested by his Spirit, and not such as he would approve.
That they may add sin to sin - They add to the sin of rebellion against God that of forming an alliance. Sins do not usually stand alone. When one is committed, it is often necessary to commit others in order to carry out and complete the plan which that contemplated.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
CHAPTER XXX
The Jews reproved for their reliance on Egypt, 1-7.
Threatened for their obstinate adherence to this alliance,
8-17.
Images the most elegant and lofty, by which the intense
gloriousness of Messiah's reign at the period when all Israel
shall be added to the Church is beautifully set forth, 18-26.
Dreadful fall of Sennacherib's army, an event most manifestly
typical of the terrible and sudden overthrow of Antichrist; as,
unless this typical reference be admitted, no possible
connexion can be imagined between the stupendous events which
took place in Hezekiah's reign, and the very remote and
inconceivably more glorious displays of Divine vengeance and
mercy in the days of the Messiah, 27-33.
NOTES ON CHAP. XXX
Verse Isaiah 30:1. And that cover with a covering - "Who ratify covenants"] Heb. "Who pour out a libation." Sacrifice and libation were ceremonies constantly used, in ancient times by most nations in the ratifying of covenants: a libation therefore is used for a covenant, as in Greek the word σπονδη, for the same reason, stands for both. This seems to be the most easy explication of the Hebrew phrase, and it has the authority of the Septuagint, εποιησατε συνθηκας.
