Isaiah 10:1

Woes On The Wicked

¹ Alas! for them who ordain iniquitous decree, - And, busy writers, who make a business of writing mischief: ² Turning aside from judgment, the poor, And robbing, of justice, the oppressed of my people, - So that, widows, become, their spoil, And of the fatherless, they make prey.

As Good as Dead

Woe to Those

Righteous Decrees

Woe Unto Them
