Hebrew Bible, Isaias, Ottley, Cambridge, 1904

17 Learn to do well; seek judgment, correct the oppressore judge the fatherless, plead for the widow.

18 Come now, and let us confer together, saith the LORD; though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow: though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.

19 If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land:

20 But if ye refuse and rebel, ye shall be eaten (by) the sword for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.

[*](9. Or (but ‘a remnant, almost as Sodom should we have been’ &)[*](13. Or, ‘incense of abomination is it to ’ Or, ‘new moons and sabbaths,...I cannot—! it is iniquity, even the c.’)[*](16. Wash ye, 1611.)

21 How is the faithful city become an harlot! she (that) was full of judgment, righteousness lodged in her; but now murderers:

22 Thy silver is become dross, thy wine impaired with water:

23 Thy princes (are) rebellious, and companions of thieves: every one of them loveth gifts, and followeth after rewards: they judge not the fatherless, ’doth the cause of the widow come unto them.

24 Therefore thus saith the Lord, the LORD of hosts, the mighty one of Israel, Ah, I will ease me of mine adversaries, and avenge me of mine enemies.
