New American Standard Bible 1995
Isaiah 1:21-24
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.
24Therefore the Lord 7God of hosts, The 8Mighty One of Israel, declares, “Ah, I will be relieved of My adversaries And 9avenge Myself on My foes.
