Isaiah 1:27-31
1599 Geneva Bible
27 Zion shall be redeemed in judgment, and they that return in her, in [a]justice.
28 And the [b]destruction of the transgressors and of the sinners shall be together: and they that forsake the Lord, shall be consumed.
29 For they shall be confounded for the [c]oaks, which ye have desired, and ye shall be ashamed of the gardens that ye have chosen,
30 For ye shall be as an oak, whose leaf fadeth: and as a garden that hath no water.
31 And the strong shall be as [d]tow, and the maker thereof as a spark: and they shall both burn together, and none shall quench them.
