Isaiah 5:23-25
Amplified Bible
Isaiah 5:23-25
Amplified Bible
23
Who justify the wicked and acquit the guilty for a bribe,
And take away the rights of those who are in the right!
24
Therefore, as the tongue of fire consumes the stubble [from straw]
And the dry grass collapses into the flame,
So their root will become like rot and their blossom blow away like fine dust;
Because they have rejected the law of the Lord of hosts
And despised and discarded the word of the Holy One of Israel.
25
Therefore the anger of the Lord has burned against His people,
And He has stretched out His hand against them and has struck them down.
And the mountains trembled, and their dead bodies lay like rubbish in the middle of the streets.
In spite of all this God’s anger is not turned away,
But His hand is still stretched out [in judgment].

New International Version
Isaiah 5:23-25
New International Version
23 who acquit the guilty for a bribe,(A)
but deny justice(B) to the innocent.(C)
24 Therefore, as tongues of fire(D) lick up straw(E)
and as dry grass sinks down in the flames,
so their roots will decay(F)
and their flowers blow away like dust;(G)
for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty
and spurned the word(H) of the Holy One(I) of Israel.
25 Therefore the Lord’s anger(J) burns against his people;
his hand is raised and he strikes them down.
The mountains shake,(K)
and the dead bodies(L) are like refuse(M) in the streets.(N)
