Isaiah 5:20-24
Christian Standard Bible
20 Woe to those who call evil good
and good evil,(A)
who substitute darkness for light
and light for darkness,
who substitute bitter for sweet
and sweet for bitter.
21 Woe to those who consider themselves wise
and judge themselves clever.[a](B)
22 Woe to those who are heroes at drinking wine,
who are champions at pouring beer,(C)
23 who acquit the guilty for a bribe(D)
and deprive the innocent of justice.
24 Therefore, as a tongue of fire consumes straw
and as dry grass shrivels in the flame,
so their roots will become like something rotten
and their blossoms will blow away like dust,
for they have rejected(E)
the instruction of the Lord of Armies,
and they have despised
the word of the Holy One of Israel.(F)
