Isaiah 5:18-19
Christian Standard Bible
18 Woe to those who drag iniquity
with cords of deceit(A)
and pull sin along with cart ropes,
19 to those who say,
“Let him hurry up and do his work quickly
so that we can see it!
Let the plan(B) of the Holy One of Israel(C) take place
so that we can know it!”
Isaiah 5:18-19
International Standard Version
Judgment on Mockers
18 “How terrible it will be for those who parade iniquity with cords of falsehood,
who draw sin along as[a] with a cart rope;
19 who say: ‘Let God[b] be quick,
let him speed up[c] his work
so we may see it!
Let it happen!
let the plan of the Holy One of Israel draw near,
so we may recognize it!’”
