הוֹי הָאֹמְרִים לָרַע טוֹב וְלַטּוֹב רָע שָׂמִים חֹשֶׁךְ לְאוֹר וְאוֹר לְחֹשֶׁךְ שָׂמִים מַר לְמָתוֹק וּמָתוֹק לְמָֽר
Woe unto them that call evil good, And good evil; That change darkness into light, And light into darkness; That change bitter into sweet, And sweet into bitter!
הוֹי חֲכָמִים בְּעֵֽינֵיהֶם וְנֶגֶד פְּנֵיהֶם נְבֹנִֽים
Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, And prudent in their own sight!
הוֹי גִּבּוֹרִים לִשְׁתּוֹת יָיִן וְאַנְשֵׁי־חַיִל לִמְסֹךְ שֵׁכָֽר
Woe unto them that are mighty to drink wine, And men of strength to mingle strong drink;
מַצְדִּיקֵי רָשָׁע עֵקֶב שֹׁחַד וְצִדְקַת צַדִּיקִים יָסִירוּ מִמֶּֽנּוּ
That justify the wicked for a reward, And take away the righteousness of the righteous from him!
לָכֵן כֶּאֱכֹל קַשׁ לְשׁוֹן אֵשׁ וַחֲשַׁשׁ לֶֽהָבָה יִרְפֶּה שָׁרְשָׁם כַּמָּק יִֽהְיֶה וּפִרְחָם כָּאָבָק יַעֲלֶה כִּי מָאֲסוּ אֵת תּוֹרַת יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת וְאֵת אִמְרַת קְדֽוֹשׁ־יִשְׂרָאֵל נִאֵֽצוּ
Therefore as the tongue of fire devoureth the stubble, And as the chaff is consumed in the flame, So their root shall be as rottenness, And their blossom shall go up as dust; Because they have rejected the law of the LORD of hosts, And contemned the word of the Holy One of Israel.
