Verse numbering typo. Verse 8 is not properly part of the section.

9. Whom shall one teach knowledge? And whom shall one make to understand the message? Them that are weaned from the milk, them that are drawn from the breasts?

10. For it is precept by precept, precept by precept, line by line, line by line; here a little, there a little.

>>Verse numbering typo

Not a typo. Was pasted directly from PC Study Bible.

Here’s the KJV for the same section with verse 7 included for context:

Isa 28:7-13

7 But they also have erred through wine, and through strong drink are out of the way; the priest and the prophet have erred through strong drink, they are swallowed up of wine, they are out of the way through strong drink; they err in vision, they stumble in judgment.

8 For all tables are full of vomit and filthiness, so that there is no place clean.

9 Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine? them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts.

10 For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:

11 For with stammering lips and another tongue will he speak to this people.

12 To whom he said, This is the rest wherewith ye may cause the weary to rest; and this is the refreshing: yet they would not hear.

13 But the word of the Lord was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.
KJV

Disagree, the key is verse 12:

“12. To whom it was said: ‘This is the rest, give ye rest to the weary; and this is the refreshing’; yet they would not hear.”

IOW, God gives a plan for reconciliation which the people reject in favor of drunkenness and ungodliness; a behavior for which God brings down the Law...
