Isaiah 5:17

Woes On The Wicked

¹⁶ But the Lord of hosts will be exalted in judgment,
And the holy God will show Himself holy in righteousness.
¹⁷ Then the lambs will graze as in their pasture,
And strangers will eat in the waste places of the wealthy.
¹⁸ Woe to those who drag iniquity with the cords of falsehood,
And sin as if with cart ropes;
