New King James Version
Isaiah 1
1 The vision of Isaiah the son of Amoz, which he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah. 2 And they have rebelled against Me; 3 My people do not consider.” 4 They have turned away backward. 5 And the whole heart faints. 6 Or soothed with ointment. 7 And it is desolate, as overthrown by strangers. 8 As a besieged city. 9 We would have been made like Gomorrah. 10 You people of Gomorrah: 11 Or of lambs or goats. 12 To trample My courts? 13 I cannot endure iniquity and the sacred meeting. 14 I am weary of bearing them. 15 Your hands are full of blood. 16 Cease to do evil, 17 Plead for the widow. 18 They shall be as wool. 19 You shall eat the good of the land; 20 For the mouth of the Lord has spoken. 21 But now murderers. 22 Your wine mixed with water. 23 Nor does the cause of the widow come before them. 24 And take vengeance on My enemies. 25 And take away all your alloy. 26 Afterward you shall be called the city of righteousness, the faithful city.” 27 And her penitents with righteousness. 28 And those who forsake the Lord shall be consumed. 29 Which you have chosen. 30 And as a garden that has no water. 31 And no one shall quench them.
