Isaiah 1:27-31
New American Standard Bible
27 Zion will be (A)redeemed with justice
And her [a]repentant ones with righteousness.
28 But [b]wrongdoers and sinners together will be (B)broken,
And those who abandon the Lord will come to an end.
29 [c]You certainly will be ashamed of the [d](C)oaks which you have desired,
And you will be embarrassed by the (D)gardens which you have chosen.
30 For you will be like an [e]oak whose (E)leaf withers away,
Or like a garden that has no water.
31 The strong man will become like [f]flax fiber,
And his work a spark.
So they shall both (F)burn together
And there will be (G)no one to extinguish them.

Isaiah 1:27-31
Holman Christian Standard Bible
27 Zion will be redeemed by justice,
her repentant ones by righteousness.(A)
28 But both rebels and sinners will be destroyed,
and those who abandon the Lord will perish.
29 Indeed, they[a] will be ashamed of the sacred trees
you desired,(B)
and you will be embarrassed because of the gardens
you have chosen.(C)
30 For you will become like an oak
whose leaves are withered,
and like a garden without water.(D)
31 The strong one will become tinder,
and his work a spark;
both will burn together,(E)
with no one to quench the flames.(F)
