"Ah, you 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!" Isaiah 5:20 (NRSV)
"Ah, you who are wise in your own eyes, and shrewd in your own sight!" Isaiah 5:21 (NRSV)

"One who justifies the wicked and one who condemns the righteous are both alike an abomination to the Lord." Proverbs 17:15 (NRSV)
For God is God of truth.
And His truth will prevail.
