Isaiah 5:17-19

New International Reader's Version

¹⁸ How terrible it will be for those who continue to sin
    and lie about it!
How terrible for those who keep on doing what is evil
    as if they were tied to it!
¹⁹ How terrible for those who say,
    “Let God hurry up and do what he says he will.
    We want to see it happen.
Let us see the plan of the Holy One of Israel.
    We want to know what it is.”
