Isaiah 1:3-5
International Children’s Bible

3 An ox knows its master.
    And a donkey knows where its owner feeds it.
But the people of Israel do not know me.
    My people do not understand.”

4 Terrible times are coming for Israel, a nation of sin.
    The people are loaded down with guilt.
They are like a group of children doing evil.
    They are full of evil.
They have left the Lord.
    They hate God, the Holy One of Israel.
    They have turned away from him.

5 Why should you continue to be punished?
    Why do you continue to turn against him?
Your whole head is hurt.
    And your whole heart is sick.
