Isaiah 5:22-24

The Voice

²² O how terrible for those heroes who can outdrink anyone,
    those champions who take pride in mixing drinks,
²³ Those judges who set the guilty free in exchange for “a little something,”
    all the while denying the innocent what they deserve!
²⁴ Therefore, as fire eats up the stubble and dry grass is engulfed by flames,
    so it will be for everything they count on for the future—
Their roots will rot, their flowers will wither and fly away like dust,
    for they refused to accept the law of the Eternal, the Commander of heavenly armies;
They derided and disparaged the word of the Holy One of Israel.
