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.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018360">2</a>. Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth: for the LORD hath spoken, I have nourished and brought up children, and they have rebelled against me.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018361">3</a>. The ox knoweth his owner, and the ass his master's crib: but Israel doth not know, my people doth not consider.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018362">4</a>. Ah sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a seed of evildoers, children that are corrupters: they have forsaken the LORD, they have provoked the Holy One of Israel unto anger, they are gone away backward.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018363">5</a>. Why should ye be stricken any more?  ye will revolt more and more: the whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018364">6</a>. From the sole of the foot even unto the head there is no soundness in it; but wounds, and bruises, and putrifying sores: they have not been closed, neither bound up, neither mollified with ointment.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018365">7</a>. Your country is desolate, your cities are burned with fire: your land, strangers devour it in your presence, and it is desolate, as overthrown by strangers.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018366">8</a>. And the daughter of Zion is left as a cottage in a vineyard, as a lodge in a garden of cucumbers, as a besieged city.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018367">9</a>. Except the LORD of hosts had left unto us a very small remnant, we should have been as Sodom, and we should have been like unto Gomorrah.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018368">10</a>. Hear the word of the LORD, ye rulers of Sodom; give ear unto the law of our God, ye people of Gomorrah.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018369">11</a>. To what purpose is the multitude of your sacrifices unto me?  saith the LORD: I am full of the burnt offerings of rams, and the fat of fed beasts; and I delight not in the blood of bullocks, or of lambs, or of he goats.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018370">12</a>. When ye come to appear before me, who hath required this at your hand, to tread my courts?</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018371">13</a>. Bring no more vain oblations; incense is an abomination unto me; the new moons and sabbaths, the calling of assemblies, I cannot away with; it is iniquity, even the solemn meeting.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018372">14</a>. Your new moons and your appointed feasts my soul hateth: they are a trouble unto me; I am weary to bear them.</li>

<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018374">16</a>. Wash you, make you clean; put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes; cease to do evil;</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018375">17</a>. Learn to do well; seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widow.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018376">18</a>. Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018377">19</a>. If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land:</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018378">20</a>. But if ye refuse and rebel, ye shall be devoured with the sword: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018379">21</a>. How is the faithful city become an harlot!  it was full of judgment; righteousness lodged in it; but now murderers.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018380">22</a>. Thy silver is become dross, thy wine mixed with water:</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018381">23</a>. Thy princes are rebellious, and companions of thieves: every one loveth gifts, and followeth after rewards: they judge not the fatherless, neither doth the cause of the widow come unto them.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018382">24</a>. Therefore saith the Lord, the LORD of hosts, the mighty One of Israel, Ah, I will ease me of mine adversaries, and avenge me of mine enemies:</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018383">25</a>. And I will turn my hand upon thee, and purely purge away thy dross, and take away all thy tin:</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018384">26</a>. And I will restore thy judges as at the first, and thy counsellors as at the beginning: afterward thou shalt be called, The city of righteousness, the faithful city.</li>

<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018386">28</a>. And the destruction of the transgressors and of the sinners shall be together, and they that forsake the LORD shall be consumed.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018387">29</a>. For they shall be ashamed of the oaks which ye have desired, and ye shall be confounded for the gardens that ye have chosen.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018388">30</a>. For ye shall be as an oak whose leaf fadeth, and as a garden that hath no water.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018389">31</a>. And the strong shall be as tow, and the maker of it as a spark, and they shall both burn together, and none shall quench them.</li>
