Isaiah 1:17-23

17learnH3925 to do wellH3190: seekH1875 judgmentH4941, gladden the oppressed, do justiceH4941 to the fatherlessH3490, plead for the widowH490.

18Come now, let us reason together, saith Jehovah: though your sinsH2399 beH1961 as scarletH8144, they shall beH1961 as whiteH3835 as snowH7950; though they beH1961 redH119 like crimsonH8438, they shall beH1961 as woolH6785.

19If ye be willingH14 and hearken, ye shall eatH398 the goodH2898 of the landH776;

20but if ye refuseH3985 and rebelH4784, ye shall be devouredH398 with the swordH2719: for the mouthH6310 of Jehovah hath spokenH1696.

21HowH349 is the faithfulH539 city becomeH1961 a harlot! It wasH1961 fullH4395 of judgmentH4941; righteousnessH6664 used to lodge in it, but nowH6258 murderersH7523.

22Thy silverH3701 is becomeH1961 dross, thy wine is mixed with waterH4325:

23thy princesH8269 are rebelliousH5637, and companionsH2270 of thievesH1590; every one loveth presents, and hunteth after rewards; they judgeH8199 not the fatherlessH3490, and the causeH7379 of the widowH490 cometh not unto them.
