Library > Bible versions > NIV > Isaiah > 1 > Isaiah   1 : 1 The vision concerning Judah and Jerusalem that Isaiah son of Amoz saw during the reigns of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz and Hezekiah, kings of Judah. 1 : 2 Hear, O heavens! Listen, O earth! For the LORD has spoken: "I reared children and brought them up, but they have rebelled against me. 1 : 3 The ox knows his master, the donkey his owner`s manger, but Israel does not know, my people do not understand." 1 : 4 Ah, sinful nation, a people loaded with guilt, a brood of evildoers, children given to corruption! They have forsaken the LORD; they have spurned the Holy One of Israel and turned their backs on him. 1 : 5 Why should you be beaten anymore? Why do you persist in rebellion? Your whole head is injured, your whole heart afflicted. 1 : 6 From the sole of your foot to the top of your head there is no soundness-- only wounds and welts and open sores, not cleansed or bandaged or soothed with oil. 1 : 7 Your country is desolate, your cities burned with fire; your fields are being stripped by foreigners right before you, laid waste as when overthrown by strangers. 1 : 8 The Daughter of Zion is left like a shelter in a vineyard, like a hut in a field of melons, like a city under siege. 1 : 9 Unless the LORD Almighty had left us some survivors, we would have become like Sodom, we would have been like Gomorrah. 1 : 10 Hear the word of the LORD, you rulers of Sodom; listen to the law of our God, you people of Gomorrah! 1 : 11 The multitude of your sacrifices-- what are they to me? says the LORD. "I have more than enough of burnt offerings, of rams and the fat of fattened animals; I have no pleasure in the blood of bulls and lambs and goats. 1 : 12 When you come to appear before me, who has asked this of you, this trampling of my courts? 1 : 13 Stop bringing meaningless offerings! Your incense is detestable to me. New Moons, Sabbaths and convocations-- I cannot bear your evil assemblies. 1 : 14 Your New Moon festivals and your appointed feasts my soul hates. They have become a burden to me; I am weary of bearing them. 1 : 15 When you spread out your hands in prayer, I will hide my eyes from you; even if you offer many prayers, I will not listen. Your hands are full of blood; 1 : 16 wash and make yourselves clean. Take your evil deeds out of my sight! Stop doing wrong, 1 : 17 learn to do right! Seek justice, encourage the oppressed. Defend the cause of the fatherless, plead the case of the widow. 1 : 18 Come now, let us reason together, says the LORD. "Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool. 1 : 19 If you are willing and obedient, you will eat the best from the land; 1 : 20 but if you resist and rebel, you will be devoured by the sword." For the mouth of the LORD has spoken. 1 : 21 See how the faithful city has become a harlot! She once was full of justice; righteousness used to dwell in her-- but now murderers! 1 : 22 Your silver has become dross, your choice wine is diluted with water. 1 : 23 Your rulers are rebels, companions of thieves; they all love bribes and chase after gifts. They do not defend the cause of the fatherless; the widow`s case does not come before them. 1 : 24 Therefore the Lord, the LORD Almighty, the Mighty One of Israel, declares: "Ah, I will get relief from my foes and avenge myself on my enemies. 1 : 25 I will turn my hand against you; I will thoroughly purge away your dross and remove all your impurities. 1 : 26 I will restore your judges as in days of old, your counselors as at the beginning. Afterward you will be called the City of Righteousness, the Faithful City." 1 : 27 Zion will be redeemed with justice, her penitent ones with righteousness. 1 : 28 But rebels and sinners will both be broken, and those who forsake the LORD will perish. 1 : 29 You will be ashamed because of the sacred oaks in which you have delighted; you will be disgraced because of the gardens that you have chosen. 1 : 30 You will be like an oak with fading leaves, like a garden without water. 1 : 31 The mighty man will become tinder and his work a spark; both will burn together, with no one to quench the fire."
