Isaiah 5:15-21 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

15. And humankind is bowed down, and man is brought low, and the eyes of the haughty are humiliated.

16. But Yahweh of hosts is exalted by justice, and the holy God shows himself holy by righteousness.

17. And then the lambs will graze as in their pasture, and fatlings, kids will eat among the sites of ruins.

18. Ah! Those who drag iniquity along with the cords of falsehood and sin as with rope of the cart,

19. those who say, “Let him make haste; let him hurry his work so that we may see it and let it draw near and let the plan of the holy one of Israel come so that we may know it!”

20. Ah! Those who call evil good and good evil, those who put darkness for light and light for darkness, those who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter!

21. Ah! Those who are wise in their own eyes and have understanding in their view!
