Bible verse
to those who say, “Let Him hurry and hasten His work so that we may see it! Let the plan of the Holy One of Israel come so that we may know it!”
Isaiah 5:19 · BSB
The verses around it, from Isaiah 5.
15 So mankind will be brought low, and each man humbled; the arrogant will lower their eyes.
16 But the LORD of Hosts will be exalted by His justice, and the holy God will show Himself holy in righteousness.
17 Lambs will graze as in their own pastures, and strangers will feed in the ruins of the wealthy.
18 Woe to those who draw iniquity with cords of deceit and pull sin along with cart ropes,
19 to those who say, “Let Him hurry and hasten His work so that we may see it! Let the plan of the Holy One of Israel come so that we may know it!”
20 Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who turn darkness to light and light to darkness, who replace bitter with sweet and sweet with bitter.
21 Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes and clever in their own sight.
22 Woe to those who are heroes in drinking wine and champions in mixing beer,
23 who acquit the guilty for a bribe and deprive the innocent of justice.
