Isaiah 1:7-9

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

⁷ Your country lies desolate,
    your cities are burned with fire;
in your very presence
    aliens devour your land;
    it is desolate, as overthrown by foreigners.
⁸ And daughter Zion is left
    like a booth in a vineyard,
like a shelter in a cucumber field,
    like a besieged city.
⁹ If the Lord of hosts
    had not left us a few survivors,
we would have been like Sodom,
    and become like Gomorrah.
