Isaiah 9:18-20

Christian Standard Bible

¹⁸ For wickedness burns like a fire^(A)
that consumes thorns and briers
and kindles the forest thickets
so that they go up in a column of smoke.
¹⁹ The land is scorched
by the wrath of the Lord of Armies,
and the people are like fuel for the fire.^(B)
No one has compassion on his brother.^(C)
20 They carve meat on the right,
but they are still hungry;^(D)
they have eaten on the left,
but they are still not satisfied.
Each one eats the flesh of his arm.^(E)
