Isaiah 1:21-23

21How the faithful city has become a 1harlot, She who was full of justice! Righteousness once lodged in her, But now murderers.22Your silver has become dross, Your drink diluted with water.23Your 2rulers are rebels And companions of thieves; Everyone 3loves a bribe And chases after rewards. They 4do not 5defend the 6orphan, Nor does the widow’s plea come before them.
