Isaiah 1:21-31

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. 24Therefore saith the LordH3068, the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the MightyH46 One of IsraelH3478, AhH1945, I will ease meH5162 of mine adversaries, and avengeH5358 meH5162 of mine enemiesH341: 25and I will turnH7725 my handH3027 uponH5921 thee, and throughly purge awayH5493 thy drossH5509, and will takeH7725 awayH5493 allH3605 thy tinH913: 26and I will restoreH7725 thy judgesH8199 as at the firstH7223, and thy counsellors as at the beginningH8462: afterwardH310 thou shalt be calledH7121 The cityH5892 of righteousnessH6664, the faithfulH539 cityH5892. 27ZionH6726 shall be redeemedH6299 with judgmentH4941, and herH7725 converts with righteousnessH6666. 28But the destructionH7667 of the transgressorsH6586 and the sinnersH2400 shall be togetherH3162, and they that forsakeH5800 the LORDH3068 shall be consumedH3615. 29For they shall be ashamedH954 of the oaksH352 whichH834 ye have desiredH2530, and ye shall be confoundedH2659 for the gardensH1593 that ye have chosenH977. 30For ye shall be as an oakH424 whoseH834 leafH5929 fadeth, and as a gardenH1593 that hath noH369 waterH4325. 31And the strongH2634 shall be as towH5296, and his workH6467 as a sparkH5213; and they shall bothH8147 burnH1197 togetherH3162, and noneH369 shall quenchH3518 them.
