The Scriptures 1998

Isaiah 5:16-20 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

16. But יהוה of hosts is exalted in judgment, and the set-apart Ěl is set-apart in righteousness.

17. And the lambs shall feed in their pasture, and strangers shall eat in the waste places of the fat ones.

18. Woe to those who draw crookedness with cords of falsehood, and sin as with wagon ropes,

19. who are saying, “Let Him hurry! Let Him hasten His work, so that we see it! And let the counsel of the Set-apart One of Yisra’ĕl draw near and come, so that we know.”

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!
