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.
1:2 Hear,
O
heavens,
and
give
ear,
O
earth;
for
the
LORD
has
spoken:
"Children
have
I
reared
and
brought
up,
but
they
have
rebelled
against
me.
1:3 The
ox
knows
its
owner,
and
the
donkey
its
master's
crib,
but
Israel
does
not
know,
my
people
do
not
understand."
1:4 Ah,
sinful
nation,
a
people
laden
with
iniquity,
offspring
of
evildoers,
children
who
deal
corruptly!
They
have
forsaken
the
LORD,
they
have
despised
the
Holy
One
of
Israel,
they
are
utterly
estranged.
1:5 Why
will
you
still
be
struck
down
Why
will
you
continue
to
rebel
The
whole
head
is
sick,
and
the
whole
heart
faint.
1:6 From
the
sole
of
the
foot
even
to
the
head,
there
is
no
soundness
in
it,
but
bruises
and
sores
and
raw
wounds;
they
are
not
pressed
out
or
bound
up
or
softened
with
oil.
1:7 Your
country
lies
desolate;
your
cities
are
burned
with
fire;
in
your
very
presence
foreigners
devour
your
land;
it
is
desolate,
as
overthrown
by
foreigners.
1:8 And
the
daughter
of
Zion
is
left
like
a
booth
in
a
vineyard,
like
a
lodge
in
a
cucumber
field,
like
a
besieged
city.
1:9 If
the
LORD
of
hosts
had
not
left
us
a
few
survivors,
we
should
have
been
like
Sodom,
and
become
like
Gomorrah.
1:10 Hear
the
word
of
the
LORD,
you
rulers
of
Sodom!
Give
ear
to
the
teaching
of
our
God,
you
people
of
Gomorrah!
1:11 "What
to
me
is
the
multitude
of
your
sacrifices
says
the
LORD;
I
have
had
enough
of
burnt
offerings
of
rams
and
the
fat
of
well-fed
beasts;
I
do
not
delight
in
the
blood
of
bulls,
or
of
lambs,
or
of
goats.
1:12 "When
you
come
to
appear
before
me,
who
has
required
of
you
this
trampling
of
my
courts
1:13 Bring
no
more
vain
offerings;
incense
is
an
abomination
to
me.
New
moon
and
Sabbath
and
the
calling
of
convocations--
I
cannot
endure
iniquity
and
solemn
assembly.
1:14 Your
new
moons
and
your
appointed
feasts
my
soul
hates;
they
have
become
a
burden
to
me;
I
am
weary
of
bearing
them.
1:15 When
you
spread
out
your
hands,
I
will
hide
my
eyes
from
you;
even
though
you
make
many
prayers,
I
will
not
listen;
your
hands
are
full
of
blood.
1:16 Wash
yourselves;
make
yourselves
clean;
remove
the
evil
of
your
deeds
from
before
my
eyes;
cease
to
do
evil,
1:17 learn
to
do
good;
seek
justice,
correct
oppression;
bring
justice
to
the
fatherless,
plead
the
widow's
cause.
1:18 "Come
now,
let
us
reason
together,
says
the
LORD:
though
your
sins
are
like
scarlet,
they
shall
be
as
white
as
snow;
though
they
are
red
like
crimson,
they
shall
become
like
wool.
1:19 If
you
are
willing
and
obedient,
you
shall
eat
the
good
of
the
land;
1:20 but
if
you
refuse
and
rebel,
you
shall
be
eaten
by
the
sword;
for
the
mouth
of
the
LORD
has
spoken."
1:21 How
the
faithful
city
has
become
a
whore,
she
who
was
full
of
justice!
Righteousness
lodged
in
her,
but
now
murderers.
1:22 Your
silver
has
become
dross,
your
best
wine
mixed
with
water.
1:23 Your
princes
are
rebels
and
companions
of
thieves.
Everyone
loves
a
bribe
and
runs
after
gifts.
They
do
not
bring
justice
to
the
fatherless,
and
the
widow's
cause
does
not
come
to
them.
1:24 Therefore
the
Lord
declares,
the
LORD
of
hosts,
the
Mighty
One
of
Israel:
"Ah,
I
will
get
relief
from
my
enemies
and
avenge
myself
on
my
foes.
1:25 I
will
turn
my
hand
against
you
and
will
smelt
away
your
dross
as
with
lye
and
remove
all
your
alloy.
1:26 And
I
will
restore
your
judges
as
at
the
first,
and
your
counselors
as
at
the
beginning.
Afterward
you
shall
be
called
the
city
of
righteousness,
the
faithful
city."
1:27 Zion
shall
be
redeemed
by
justice,
and
those
in
her
who
repent,
by
righteousness.
1:28 But
rebels
and
sinners
shall
be
broken
together,
and
those
who
forsake
the
LORD
shall
be
consumed.
1:29 For
they
shall
be
ashamed
of
the
oaks
that
you
desired;
and
you
shall
blush
for
the
gardens
that
you
have
chosen.
1:30 For
you
shall
be
like
an
oak
whose
leaf
withers,
and
like
a
garden
without
water.
1:31 And
the
strong
shall
become
tinder,
and
his
work
a
spark,
and
both
of
them
shall
burn
together,
with
none
to
quench
them.
