Isaiah 1:27-31
Christian Standard Bible
27 Zion will be redeemed by justice,
those who repent, by righteousness.(A)
28 At the same time both rebels and sinners will be broken,
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 garden shrines
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 extinguish the flames.(F)

Isaiah 1:27-31
Common English Bible
27 Zion will be redeemed by justice,
and those who change their lives by righteousness.
28 But God will shatter rebels and sinners alike;
those who abandon the Lord will be finished.
29 You will be ashamed of the oaks you once desired,
and embarrassed by the gardens you once chose.
30 You will be like an oak with withering leaves,
like a garden without water.
31 The strong will be like dry twigs,
their deeds like sparks;
the two will burn together,
with no one to extinguish them.
