22 Woe unto those that are mighty to drink wine and men of strength to mingle strong drink;

23 who justify the wicked for bribes and take away the righteousness 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 away as dust because they have cast away the law of the LORD of the hosts and despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.

22 Woe to those who are heroes at drinking wine(A)
    and champions at mixing drinks,(B)
23 who acquit the guilty for a bribe,(C)
    but deny justice(D) to the innocent.(E)
24 Therefore, as tongues of fire(F) lick up straw(G)
    and as dry grass sinks down in the flames,
so their roots will decay(H)
    and their flowers blow away like dust;(I)
for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty
    and spurned the word(J) of the Holy One(K) of Israel.
