And bcompanions of thieves;
cEveryone loves bribes,
And follows after rewards.
They ddo not defend the fatherless,
Nor does the cause of the widow come before them.
The Lord of hosts, the Mighty One of Israel,
“Ah, aI will rid Myself of My adversaries,
And1 take vengeance on My enemies.
And athoroughly purge away your dross,
And take away all your alloy.
And your counselors as at the beginning.
Afterward byou shall be called the city of righteousness, the faithful city.”
And those who forsake the Lord shall be consumed.
Which you have desired;
And you shall be embarrassed because of the gardens
Which you have chosen.
| << Isaiah 1:23 | Isaiah 1:25 >> |
