Woe
to those who call evil good
- and good evil
Woe to those who put darkness for light
- and light for darkness
Woe to those who put bitter for sweet
- and sweet for bitter |
Isaiah
5:20 - Woe unto them that call
evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for
light, and light for darkness; that put bitter
for sweet, and sweet for bitter! |
Woe to those
who are wise in their own eyes
- and prudent in their own sight |
Isaiah
5:21 - Woe unto them that are
wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own
sight! |
But they do not
regard the work of the Lord
Nor consider the operation of His hand |
Isaiah
5:12 - And the harp, and the
viol, the tabret, and pipe, and wine, are in
their feasts: but they regard not the work of the
LORD, neither consider the operation of his hands. |
Therefore as
fire devours the stubble
So their root will be as rottenness
Because they have rejected the law of the Lord of
Hosts
And despised the word of the Holy One of Israel |
Isaiah
5:24 - Therefore as the fire
devoureth the stubble, and the flame consumeth
the chaff, so their root shall be as rottenness,
and their blossom shall go up as dust: because
they have cast away the law of the LORD of hosts,
and despised the word of the Holy One of Israel. |
For all this
His anger is not turned away |
Isaiah
5:25 - Therefore is the anger
of the LORD kindled against his people, and he
hath stretched forth his hand against them, and
hath smitten them: and the hills did tremble, and
their carcases were torn in the midst of the
streets. For all this his anger is not turned
away, but his hand is stretched out still. |
He will lift up
a banner to the nations from afar |
Isaiah
5:26 - And he will lift up an
ensign to the nations from far, and will hiss
unto them from the end of the earth: and, behold,
they shall come with speed swiftly: |
Therefore my
people have gone into captivity
Because they have no knowledge
Their honorable men are famished
And their multitude dried up with thirst |
Isaiah
5:13 - Therefore my people are
gone into captivity, because they have no
knowledge: and their honourable men are famished,
and their multitude dried up with thirst. |
