Isaiah 5:20 - Forerunner Commentary

Isaiah 5:20

18 Woe to those who¹ draw iniquity with cords of vanity,
And sin as if with a cart rope;

19 ^aThat say, “Let Him make speed and hasten His work,
That we may see it;
And let the counsel of the Holy One of Israel draw near and come,
That we may know it.”

20 Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil;
Who put darkness for light, and light for darkness;
Who put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

21 Woe to those who are ^awise in their own eyes,
And prudent in their own sight!

22 Woe to men mighty at drinking wine,
Woe to men valiant for mixing intoxicating drink,

Isaiah 5:20
