Isaiah 1:2-4
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
The Wickedness of Judah
2 Hear, O heavens, and listen, O earth,
for the Lord has spoken:
I reared children and brought them up,
but they have rebelled against me.(A)
3 The ox knows its owner
and the donkey its master’s crib,
but Israel does not know;
my people do not understand.(B)
4 Woe, sinful nation,
people laden with iniquity,
offspring who do evil,
children who act corruptly,
who have forsaken the Lord,
who have despised the Holy One of Israel,
[[who are utterly estranged!]][a](C)

Isaiah 1:16-20
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
16 Wash yourselves; make yourselves clean;
remove your evil deeds
from before my eyes;
cease to do evil;(A)
17 learn to do good;
seek justice;
rescue the oppressed;
defend the orphan;
plead for the widow.(B)
18 Come now, let us argue it out,
says the Lord:
If your sins are like scarlet,
will they become like snow?
If they are red like crimson,
will they become like wool?(C)
19 If you are willing and obedient,
you shall eat the good of the land,(D)
20 but if you refuse and rebel,
you shall be devoured by the sword,
for the mouth of the Lord has spoken.(E)
