Isaiah 1:9-31
9Unless Jehovah of hostsH6635 had leftH3498 us a very smallH4592 residue, we should have beenH1961 as SodomH5467, we should have beenH1961 like unto GomorrahH6017. 10HearH8085 the wordH1697 of Jehovah, rulersH7101 of SodomH5467; giveH238 earH238 unto the lawH8451 of our 1GodH430, peopleH5971 of GomorrahH6017! 11To what purpose is the multitudeH7230 of your sacrificesH2077 unto me? saith Jehovah. I am sated with burnt-offerings of ramsH352, and the fatH2459 of fed beasts; and in the bloodH1818 of bullocks, and of lambsH3532, and of he-goats I take no pleasureH2654. 12When ye comeH935 to appearH7200 before me, who hath requiredH1245 this from your handH3027 — to tread my courts? 13BringH935 no more vain oblations! IncenseH7004 is an abominationH8441 unto me, — newH2320 moonH2320 and sabbathH7676, the callingH7121 of convocationsH4744 — wickednessH205 and the solemnH6116 meeting I cannot bear. 14Your newH2320 moonsH2320 and your set feastsH4150 my soulH5315 hateth: they are a burdenH2960 to me; I amH1961 weariedH3811 of bearingH5375 [them]. 15And when ye spreadH6566 forth your handsH3027, I will hideH5956 mine eyesH5869 from you; yea, when ye makeH8085 manyH7235 prayersH8605, I will not hearH8085: your handsH3027 are fullH4390 of bloodH1818. 16WashH7364 you, make you clean; put awayH5493 the evil of your doings from before mine eyesH5869; — ceaseH2308 to do evil, 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. 24ThereforeH3651 saith the Lord, Jehovah of hostsH6635, the MightyH46 OneH46 of IsraelH3478: Ah! I will ease me of mine adversaries, and avengeH5358 me of mine enemiesH341. 25And I will turnH7725 my handH3027 upon thee, and will thoroughly purge awayH5493 thy dross, and take awayH5493 all thine alloy; 26and I will restoreH7725 thy judgesH8199 as at the firstH7223, and thy counsellors as at the beginning. Afterwards thou shalt be calledH7121, TownH7151 of righteousnessH6664, FaithfulH539 cityH5892. 27ZionH6726 shall be redeemedH6299 with judgmentH4941, and they that returnH7725 of her with righteousnessH6666. 28But the ruinH7667 of the transgressorsH6586 and of the sinnersH2400 [shall be] togetherH3162; and they that forsakeH5800 Jehovah shall be consumed. 29For they shall be ashamedH954 of the terebinths that ye have desiredH2530, and ye shall blush for the gardensH1593 that ye have chosenH977. 30For ye shall beH1961 as a terebinthH424 whose leafH5929 fadeth, and as a gardenH1593 that hath no waterH4325. 31And the strongH2634 shall beH1961 for towH5296, and his workH6467 a spark; and they shall both burnH1197 togetherH3162, and there shall beH1961 none to quenchH3518 [them].
