Isaiah 5:18-23

18WoeH1945 unto them that drawH4900 iniquityH5771 with cordsH5688 of vanityH7723, and sinH2403 as it were with a cartH5699 rope:

19that sayH559, Let him makeH3045 speedH4116, let him hastenH4116 his workH4639, that weH7200 may seeH7200 it: and let the counselH6098 of the HolyH6918 One of IsraelH3478 drawH7126 nigh and comeH935, that weH7200 may knowH3045 it!

20WoeH1945 unto them that callH559 evilH7451 goodH2896, and goodH2896 evilH7451; that putH7760 darknessH2822 for lightH216, and lightH216 for darknessH2822; that putH7760 bitterH4751 for sweetH4966, and sweetH4966 for bitterH4751!

21WoeH1945 unto them that are wiseH2450 their ownH6440 eyesH5869, and prudentH995 in their ownH6440 sightH5869!

22WoeH1945 unto them that are mightyH1368 to drinkH8354 wineH3196, and menH376 of strengthH2428 to mingle strongH7941 drinkH8354:

23which justifyH6663 the wickedH7563 for a rewardH6118, and takeH5493 awayH5493 the righteousnessH6666 of the righteousH6662 from him!
