Isaiah 5:19-21
Legacy Standard Bible
19 (A)Who say, “Let Him hurry, let Him hasten His work, that we may see it;
And let the counsel of the Holy One of Israel draw near
And come to pass, that we may know it!”
20 Woe to those who (B)call evil good and good evil,
Who [a](C)substitute darkness for light and light for darkness,
Who [b]substitute bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter!
21 Woe to those who are (D)wise in their own eyes
And understanding in their own [c]sight!
