16 (A)Wash yourselves; make yourselves clean;
    remove the evil of your deeds from before my eyes;
(B)cease to do evil,
17     learn to do good;
(C)seek justice,
    correct oppression;
(D)bring justice to the fatherless,
    plead the widow's cause.

18 “Come now, (E)let us reason[a] together, says the Lord:
though your sins are like scarlet,
    they shall be as (F)white as snow;
though they are red like crimson,
    they shall become like wool.
19 (G)If you are willing and obedient,
    you shall eat the good of the land;
20 but if you refuse and rebel,
    you shall be eaten by the sword;
    (H)for the mouth of the Lord has spoken.”
