"Woe" in Isaiah

the Valiant One of Israel, declares,
Woe to them! I will relieve me
of my adversaries,
avenge me of my enemies.
(Isaiah 1:24)

9 The look on their faces betrays them:
they flaunt their sin like Sodom;
they cannot hide it.
Woe to their souls;
they have brought disaster upon themselves!

when calamity overtakes them
they shall be paid back
for the deeds they have done!

and link field to field till no place is left,
and you are restricted to dwell
in the centers of the land!

11 Woe to those who go after liquor
as soon as they arise in the morning,
who linger at night parties, inflamed by wine!
(Isaiah 5:11)

18 Woe to those drawn to sin by vain attachments,
hitched to transgression like a trailer,

19 who think, Let him quickly speed up his work
so we may see it!
Let the plan of the Holy One of Israel
soon come to pass, and we will know!
(Isaiah 5:18-19)

20 Woe to those who suppose what is evil to be good
and what is good, evil!
They put darkness for light
and light for darkness;
they make bitterness sweet and the sweet bitter.

21 Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes
and clever in their own view!

22 Woe to those who are valiant at drinking wine
and champions at mixing liquor!

23 Woe to those who acquit the guilty for a bribe
but deny justice to the innocent! (Isaiah 5:20-23)

5 Then I thought, Woe is me: I have been struck dumb, for I am a man of unclean speech, and I live among a people of unclean speech: I have seen the King, the Lord of Hosts, with my own eyes! (Isaiah 6:5)

1 Woe to those who enact unjust laws,
who draft oppressive legislation—
2 denying justice to the needy,
depriving the poor of my people of their right,
making plunder of widows,
mere spoil of the fatherless!
(Isaiah 10:1-2)

12 Woe to the many peoples in an uproar,
who rage like the raging of the seas—
tumultuous nations, in commotion
like the turbulence of mighty waters!
13 Nations may roar like the roaring of great waters,
but when he rebukes them they will flee far away;
they will be driven before the wind
like chaff on the mountains,
or as whirling dust in a storm.
(Isaiah 17:12-13)

18 Woe to the land of buzzing wings
beyond the rivers of Cush,
2 which sends emissaries by sea,
in swift craft across the water!
They say, Go speedily, you messengers!
Go to a people perpetually on the move,
a nation dreaded far and wide,
a people continually infringing,
whose rivers have annexed their lands.
(Isaiah 18:1-2)

16 From a sector of the earth we hear singing:
Glorious are the righteous!
Whereas I thought, I am wasting away;
I am weakening:
woe is me; the traitors have been treacherous,
the turncoats have deceitfully betrayed!
(Isaiah 24:16)

Woe to the garlands of glory
of the drunkards of Ephraim!
Their crowning splendor has become as fading wreaths
on the heads of athe opulent overcome with wine. (Isaiah 28, Pos. 1)

Ariel, the city where David lodged!
Though you add year to year,
and the feastdays recur in succession,
(Isaiah 29:1)

to hide their schemes from the Lord!
They work in the dark, thinking,
Who will see us? Who will know?

for drawing up plans, but not by me,
for making alliances without my approval,
only adding sin to sin!

relying on horses,
putting their trust in immense numbers
of chariots and vast forces of horsemen,
but who do not look to the Holy One of Israel,
nor inquire of the Lord!
(Isaiah 31:1)

Woe to you, despoiler,
who yourself was not despoiled;
O treacherous one,
with whom none have been treacherous:
when you have done with devastating,
you shall be devastated;
when you are through betraying,
they shall betray you!
(Isaiah 33:1-8)

9 Woe to those in conflict with their Maker,
mere shards of earthenware pottery!
As though the clay were to say to him who molds it,
What are you doing?
Your hands have no skill for the work!
10 Woe to those who say to their Father,
What have you begotten?
or to the Woman, What have you borne?
(Isaiah 45:31-38)
