5 Thus says the Lord:
“Cursed is the man (A)who trusts in man
and makes flesh his strength,[a]

(C)and shall not see any good come.
He shall dwell in the parched places of the wilderness,
in (D)an uninhabited salt land.

Isaiah 28:15-20
English Standard Version
15 Because you have said, “We have made a covenant with death,
and with Sheol we have an agreement,
when the (A)overwhelming whip passes through
it will not come to us,
for we have made (B)lies our refuge,
and in falsehood we have taken shelter”;
16 therefore thus says the Lord God,
(C)“Behold, I am the one who has laid[a] as a foundation (D)in Zion,
a stone, a tested stone,
a precious cornerstone, of a sure foundation:
‘Whoever believes will not be in haste.’
17 And I will make justice (E)the line,
and righteousness (F)the plumb line;
and hail will sweep away the refuge of lies,
and waters will overwhelm the shelter.”
18 Then (G)your covenant with death will be annulled,
and your agreement with Sheol will not stand;
when the overwhelming scourge passes through,
you will be beaten down by it.
19 As often as it passes through it will take you;
(H)for morning by morning it will pass through,
by day and by night;
and it will be (I)sheer terror to understand the message.
20 For the bed is too short to stretch oneself on,
and the covering too narrow to wrap oneself in.
