Isaiah 5:14-16

Contemporary English Version

¹⁴ The world of the dead has opened its mouth wide and is eagerly waiting for the leaders of Jerusalem and for its noisy crowds, especially for those who take pride in that city. ¹⁵ Its citizens have been put down, and its proud people have been brought to shame. ¹⁶ But the holy Lord God All-Powerful is praised, because he has shown who he is by bringing justice.
