That say, Let him make speed, and hasten his work, that we may see it: and let the counsel of the Holy One of Israel draw nigh and come, that we may know it!

The verse 19 is found in chapter 5 of Isaiah. The six woes denounce different expressions of corruption: accumulation of property, excessive drinking, indifference to God’s work, moral relativism, pride, and judicial corruption. The chapter ends by presenting a foreign nation as an instrument of judgment. Unjust prosperity is not interpreted as a permanent blessing, but as a condition that can lead to ruin.

und sprechen: Laß eilend und bald kommen sein Werk, daß wir's sehen; laß herfahren und kommen den Anschlag des Heiligen in Israel, daß wir's innewerden.
Los cuales dicen: Venga ya, apresúrese su obra, y veamos: acérquese, y venga el consejo del Santo de Israel, para que lo sepamos!
Dicen: «Que se dé prisa, que apresure su obra, para que la veamos; que se acerque y llegue el propósito del Santo de Israel, para que lo conozcamos».
Et qui disent: Qu'il hâte, qu'il accélère son oeuvre, Afin que nous la voyions! Que le décret du Saint d'Israël arrive et s'exécute, Afin que nous le connaissions!
I quali dicono: Affrettisi pure, e solleciti l’opera sua, acciocchè, noi la veggiamo; ed accostisi, e venga pure il consiglio del Santo d’Israele, acciocchè noi lo conosciamo.
E dizem: Avie-se, e acabe a sua obra, para que a vejamos; e aproxime-se e venha o conselho do Santo de Israel, para que o conheçamos.
他們說: 「任 以色列 的聖者急速前行,快快成就他的作為, 好讓我們看看; 任他的籌算臨近成就, 好使我們知道。」
