Bible. Isaiah
23:005:021 Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in
their own sight!
23:005:022 Woe unto them that are mighty to drink wine, and men of
strength to mingle strong drink:
23:005:023 Which justify the wicked for reward, and take away the
righteousness of the righteous from him!
23:005:024 Therefore as the fire devoureth the stubble, and the flame
consumeth the chaff, so their root shall be as rottenness, and
their blossom shall go up as dust: because they have cast away
the law of the LORD of hosts, and despised the word of the
Holy One of Israel.
23:005:025 Therefore is the anger of the LORD kindled against his people,
and he hath stretched forth his hand against them, and hath
smitten them: and the hills did tremble, and their carcases
were torn in the midst of the streets. For all this his anger
is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
23:005:026 And he will lift up an ensign to the nations from far, and
will hiss unto them from the end of the earth: and, behold,
they shall come with speed swiftly:
23:005:027 None shall be weary nor stumble among them; none shall slumber
nor sleep; neither shall the girdle of their loins be loosed,
nor the latchet of their shoes be broken:
23:005:028 Whose arrows are sharp, and all their bows bent, their horses'
hoofs shall be counted like flint, and their wheels like a
whirlwind:
23:005:029 Their roaring shall be like a lion, they shall roar like young
lions: yea, they shall roar, and lay hold of the prey, and
shall carry it away safe, and none shall deliver it.
23:005:030 And in that day they shall roar against them like the roaring
of the sea: and if one look unto the land, behold darkness and
sorrow, and the light is darkened in the heavens thereof.
23:006:001 In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the LORD sitting
upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the
temple.
23:006:002 Above it stood the seraphims: each one had six wings; with
twain he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet,
and with twain he did fly.
23:006:003 And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the
LORD of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory.
23:006:004 And the posts of the door moved at the voice of him that
cried, and the house was filled with smoke.
23:006:005 Then said I, Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of
unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean
lips: for mine eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts.
23:006:006 Then flew one of the seraphims unto me, having a live coal in
his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the
