15 The mean man is bowed down, and the great man is humbled, and the eyes of the lofty are humbled:
16 but Yahweh of Hosts is exalted in justice, and God the Holy One is sanctified in righteousness.

18 Woe to those who draw iniquity with cords of falsehood, and sin as it were with a cart rope;
19 who say, Let him make speed, let him hasten his work, that we may see it; and let the counsel of the Holy One of Israel draw near and come, that we may know it!
20 Woe 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!
