¹⁸ “Come now, and let’s reason together,” says Yahweh:
    “Though your sins are as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow.
    Though they are red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
¹⁹ If you are willing and obedient,
    you will eat the good of the land;
²⁰     but if you refuse and rebel, you will be devoured with the sword;
    for the Yahweh’s mouth has spoken it.”
