Isaiah 1:5-7

Easy-to-Read Version

⁵ What good will it do to keep punishing you? You will continue to rebel. Your whole head and heart are already sick and aching.^{[a] 6} From the bottom of your feet to the top of your head, every part of your body has wounds, cuts, and open sores. You have not taken care of them. Your wounds have not been cleaned and bandaged.

⁷ Your land is in ruins, and your cities are in flames. Your enemies have taken your land, and foreigners are taking what it produces. It looks like some foreigners destroyed it.^[b]
