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!”

And sin as if with cart ropes;

And let the plan of the Holy One of Israel approach
And come to pass, so that we may know it!”
