Isaiah 1:18-21

¹⁸“Come now, and let’s reason together,” says the LORD: “Though your sins are as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow. Though they are red like crimson, they shall be as wool.

¹⁹If you are willing and obedient, you will eat the good of the land;

²⁰but if you refuse and rebel, you will be devoured with the sword; for the LORD’s mouth has spoken it.”

²¹How the faithful city has become a prostitute! She was full of justice. Righteousness lodged in her, but now there are murderers.
