Revised Version 1895
Isaiah 1:11-23
11To whatH4100 purpose is the multitudeH7230 of your sacrificesH2077 unto meH3808? saith the LORDH3068: I am fullH7646 of the burntH5930 offeringsH3068 of ramsH352, and the fatH2459 of fedH4806 beasts; and I delightH2654 notH3808 in the bloodH1818 of bullocks, or of lambsH3532, or of he-goats.
12When ye comeH935 to appearH7200 beforeH6440 meH6440, who hath requiredH1245 this at your handH3027, to trampleH7429 my courts?
13BringH935 noH3808 moreH3254 vainH7723 oblations; incenseH7004 is an abominationH8441 unto meH935; newH2320 moonH2320 and sabbathH7676, the callingH7121 of assembliesH4744,—I cannotH3808 awayH935 with iniquityH205 and the solemnH6116 meeting.
14Your newH2320 moonsH2320 and your appointedH4150 feastsH4150 my soulH5315 hateth: they are a trouble unto meH5315; I am wearyH3811 to bearH5375 them.
15And when ye spreadH6566 forthH8085 your handsH3027, I will hideH5956 mineH4480 eyesH5869 from youH3588: yeaH3588, when ye makeH8085 manyH7235 prayersH8605, I will notH369 hearH8085: your handsH3027 are fullH4390 of bloodH1818.
16WashH7364 youH5493, makeH2135 youH5493 cleanH2135; putH5493 awayH5493 the evilH7455 of your doingsH4611 from beforeH5048 mine eyesH5869; ceaseH2308 to doH5493 evilH7455:
17learnH3925 to doH3190 wellH3190; seekH1875 judgmentH4941, relieve the oppressed, judgeH8199 the fatherlessH3490, pleadH7378 for the widowH490.
18ComeH1961 nowH4994, and letH4994 usH4994 reasonH3198 together, saith the LORDH3068: thoughH518 your sinsH2399 be as scarletH8144, they shall be as whiteH3835 as snowH7950; thoughH518 they be redH119 like crimsonH8438, they shall be as woolH6785.
19IfH518 ye be willingH14 and obedientH8085, ye shall eatH398 the goodH2898 of the landH776:
20but ifH518 ye refuseH3985 and rebelH4784, ye shall be devouredH398 with the swordH2719: for the mouthH6310 of the LORDH3068 hath spokenH1696 it.
21HowH349 is the faithfulH539 cityH7151 becomeH1961 an harlotH2181! she that was fullH4395 of judgmentH4941! righteousnessH6664 lodged in herH1961, but nowH6258 murderersH7523.
22Thy silverH3701 is becomeH1961 drossH5509, thy wine mixed with waterH4325.
23Thy princesH8269 are rebelliousH5637, and companionsH2270 of thievesH1590; everyH3605 one loveth giftsH7810, and followeth afterH413 rewardsH8021: they judgeH8199 notH3808 the fatherlessH3490, neitherH3808 doth the causeH7379 of the widowH490 comeH935 unto them.
