Isaiah 5:24
New English Translation

24 Therefore, as flaming fire[a] devours straw,
and dry grass disintegrates in the flames,
so their root will rot,
and their flower will blow away like dust.[b]
For they have rejected the law of the Lord of Heaven’s Armies,
they have spurned the commands[c] of the Holy One of Israel.[d]
