Isaiah 5:18-20

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

¹⁸ Woe to those who drag iniquity along with cords of falsehood,
    who drag sin along as with cart ropes,^(A)
19 who say, “Let him make haste;
    let him speed his work
    that we may see it;
let the plan of the Holy One of Israel hasten to fulfillment,
    that we may know it!”^(B)
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!^(C)
