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,

    and spurned the word(J) of the Holy One(K) of Israel.
