Isaiah 5:19-21
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
19 [a]Who say, “Let him make haste,
let him speed his work, that we may see it;
On with the plan of the Holy One of Israel!
let it come to pass, that we may know it!”(A)
20 Ah! Those who call evil good, and good evil,
who change darkness to light, and light into darkness,
who change bitter to sweet, and sweet into bitter!(B)
21 Ah! Those who are wise in their own eyes,
prudent in their own view!(C)
