Isaiah 1:4-7
English Standard Version
4 Ah, sinful nation,
a people laden with iniquity,
(A)offspring of evildoers,
children who deal corruptly!
They have forsaken the Lord,
they have (B)despised (C)the Holy One of Israel,
they are utterly (D)estranged.
5 Why will you still be (E)struck down?
Why will you (F)continue to rebel?
The whole head is sick,
and the whole heart faint.
6 (G)From the sole of the foot even to the head,
there is no soundness in it,
but bruises and sores
and raw wounds;
they are (H)not pressed out or bound up
or softened with oil.
7 (I)Your country lies desolate;
your cities are burned with fire;
in your very presence
foreigners devour your land;
it is desolate, as overthrown by foreigners.
