Isaiah 5:22-24

Modern English Version

²² Woe to those who are mighty to drink wine,
    and men of strength to mingle strong drink,
²³ who justify the wicked for a reward,
    and take away the justice of the righteous from him!
²⁴ Therefore, as the fire devours the stubble
    and the flame consumes the chaff,
so their root shall be as rottenness,
    and their blossom shall go up as dust;
because they have cast away the law of the Lord of Hosts
    and despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.
