Isaiah 1:22-28

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

²³thy princes are rebellious, and companions of thieves; every one loveth presents, and hunteth after rewards; they judge not the fatherless, and the cause of the widow cometh not unto them.

²⁴Therefore saith the Lord, Jehovah of hosts, the Mighty One of Israel: Ah! I will ease me of mine adversaries, and avenge me of mine enemies.

²⁵And I will turn my hand upon thee, and will thoroughly purge away thy dross, and take away all thine alloy;

²⁶and I will restore thy judges as at the first, and thy counsellors as at the beginning. Afterwards thou shalt be called, Town of righteousness, Faithful city.

²⁷Zion shall be redeemed with judgment, and they that return of her with righteousness.

²⁸But the ruin of the transgressors and of the sinners shall be together; and they that forsake Jehovah shall be consumed.
