Isaiah 5:23-25
Young's Literal Translation
Isaiah 5:23-25
Young's Literal Translation
23 Declaring righteous the wicked for a bribe, And the righteousness of the righteous They turn aside from him.
24 Therefore, as a tongue of fire devoureth stubble, And flaming hay falleth, Their root is as muck, And their flower as dust goeth up. Because they have rejected the law of Jehovah of Hosts, And the saying of the Holy One of Israel despised.
25 Therefore hath the anger of Jehovah burned among His people, And He stretcheth out His hand against it, And smiteth it, and the mountains tremble, And their carcase is as filth in the midst of the out-places. With all this His anger did not turn back, And still His hand is stretched out!

Isaiah 5:23-25
New International Version
23 who acquit the guilty for a bribe,(A)
but deny justice(B) to the innocent.(C)
24 Therefore, as tongues of fire(D) lick up straw(E)
and as dry grass sinks down in the flames,
so their roots will decay(F)
and their flowers blow away like dust;(G)
for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty
and spurned the word(H) of the Holy One(I) of Israel.
25 Therefore the Lord’s anger(J) burns against his people;
his hand is raised and he strikes them down.
The mountains shake,(K)
and the dead bodies(L) are like refuse(M) in the streets.(N)
