Isaias

Hebrew Bible

Hebrew Bible, Isaias, Ottley, Cambridge, 1904

9 The show of their face doth witness against them; and they declare their sin as Sodom, they hide it not. Woe unto their soul! for they have awarded evil unto themselves.

10 Say ye to the righteous, that it is well; for they shall eat the fruit of their doings.

11 Woe unto the wicked, it is ill! for the reward of his hands shall be given him.

12 My people, their oppressors are children, and women rule over them. My people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and swallow up the way of thy paths.

13 The LORD standeth up to plead, and standeth to judge the peoples.

14 The LORD will enter into judgment with the elders of his people, and the princes thereof; and ye—ye have eaten up vineyard; the spoil of the poor is in your houses.
