Into the Fire

Woe to those who call evil good 

   and good evil,

who put darkness for light

   and light for darkness,

who put bitter for sweet 

   and sweet for bitter. 

Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes 

   and clever in their own sight.

Woe to those who are heroes at drinking wine

   and champions at mixing drinks,

who acquit the guilty for a bribe,

   but deny justice to the innocent. 

Isaiah 5:20-23 (NIV)
