Isaiah 1:23-26
New International Version
23 Your rulers are rebels,(A)
partners with thieves;(B)
they all love bribes(C)
and chase after gifts.
They do not defend the cause of the fatherless;
the widow’s case does not come before them.(D)
24 Therefore the Lord, the Lord Almighty,
the Mighty One(E) of Israel, declares:
“Ah! I will vent my wrath on my foes
and avenge(F) myself on my enemies.(G)
25 I will turn my hand against you;[a](H)
I will thoroughly purge(I) away your dross(J)
and remove all your impurities.(K)
26 I will restore your leaders as in days of old,(L)
your rulers as at the beginning.
Afterward you will be called(M)
the City of Righteousness,(N)
the Faithful City.(O)”
