Isaiah 5:23-25

New American Standard Bible

^23 (A)Who declare the wicked innocent for a bribe,
And ^(B)take away the ^[a]rights of the ones who are in the right!

²⁴ Therefore, ^(C)as a tongue of fire consumes stubble,
And dry grass collapses in the flame,
So their ^(D)root will become ^(E)like rot, and their blossom ^[b]blow away like dust;
For they have ^(F)rejected the Law of the Lord of armies,
And discarded the word of the Holy One of Israel.
²⁵ For this reason the ^(G)anger of the Lord has burned against His people,
And He has stretched out His hand against them and struck them.
And the ^(H)mountains quaked, and their ^(I)corpses ^[c]lay like refuse in the middle of the streets.
^(J)Despite all this, His anger ^[d]is not spent,
But His ^(K)hand is still stretched out.
