Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight!
A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
The verse 21 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.
Meditate on this verse and share your reflection or spiritual experience with the community. Your comments will enrich everyone's learning.
Compare Isaiah 5:21 in different Bible versions and see how its wording varies between translations. These differences can help you better understand the meaning and context of the passage.
