Context Reading
19who say, “Let him make haste, let him hasten his work, that we may see it;let the counsel of the Holy One of Israel draw near and come,that we may know it!” 20Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil;who put darkness for light,and light for darkness;who put bitter for sweet,and sweet for bitter! 21Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes,and prudent in their own sight! 22Woe to those who are mighty to drink wine,and champions at mixing strong drink; 23who acquit the guilty for a bribe,but deny justice for the innocent!
