Ah, sinful nation,
a people loaded with guilt,
a brood of evildoers,
children given to corruption!
They have forsaken the Lord;
they have spurned the Holy One of Israel
and turned their backs on him.
Isaiah 1:4

your cities burned with fire;
your fields are being stripped by foreigners right before you,
laid waste as when overthrown by strangers.
Isaiah 1:7

like a hut in a field of melons,
like a city under siege.

we would have become like Sodom,
we would have been like Gomorrah.
Isaiah 1:9

Stop bringing meaningless offerings!
Your incense is detestable to me.
New Moons, a  Sabbaths and convocations—
I cannot bear your evil assemblies.
Your New Moon festivals and your appointed feasts
my soul hates.
They have become a burden to me;
I am weary of bearing them.
When you spread out your hands in prayer,
I will hide my eyes from you;
even if you offer many prayers,
I will not listen.
Your hands are full of blood.
Isaiah 1:13-15

If you are willing and obedient,
you will eat the best from the land;
but if you resist and rebel,
you will be devoured by the sword.”
For the mouth of the Lord has spoken.

She once was full of justice;
righteousness used to dwell in her—
but now murderers!

and remove all your impurities.”
Isaiah 1:24-25

Zion will be redeemed with justice,
her penitent ones with righteousness.
But rebels and sinners will both be broken,
and those who forsake the Lord will perish.
Isaiah 1:27-28

in which you have delighted;
you will be disgraced because of the gardens that you have chosen.
You will be like an oak with fading leaves,
like a garden without water.”
Isaiah 1:29-30

"The mighty man will become tinder
and his work a spark;
both will burn together,
with no one to quench the fire.”

This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, said to me:

I will send among them.”

but will be like refuse lying on the ground.
