Isaiah 1:21-25
21HowH351 the faithfulH539 cityH7151 has becomeH1961 a 1harlotH2181, She who was fullH4392 of justiceH4941! RighteousnessH6664 once lodgedH3885 in her, But nowH6258 murderersH7523.22Your silverH3701 has becomeH1961 drossH5509, Your drinkH5435 dilutedH4107 with waterH4325.23Your 2rulersH8269 are rebelsH5637 And companionsH2270 of thievesH1590; EveryoneH3605 3lovesH157 a bribeH7810 And chasesH7291 after rewardsH8021. They 4do not 5defendH8199 the 6orphanH3490, NorH3808 does the widow’sH490 pleaH7379 comeH935 beforeH413 them.
24ThereforeH3651 the LordH136 7GodH3068 of hostsH6635, The 8MightyH46 OneH46 of IsraelH3478, declaresH5002, “AhH1945, I will be relievedH5162 of My adversariesH6862 And 9avengeH5358 Myself on My foesH340.25I will also turnH7725 My handH3027 againstH5921 you, And will 10smeltH6884 away your drossH5509 as with lyeH1253 And will removeH5493 allH3605 your alloyH913.
