Isaiah 10:1-3
International Standard Version
Judgment on Unjust Lawmakers
10 “How terrible it will be for the one[a] who enacts unjust decrees,
for those who write oppressive laws
that they have prescribed
2 to deprive the needy of justice
and to rob the poor of my people of their rights,[b]
so that widows may become their spoil
and so that they may plunder orphans![c]
3 What will you do on the day of Judgment,[d]
in the calamity that will come from far away?
To whom will you run for help,
and where will you leave your wealth,
