Isaiah 1:22-28

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

²³Thy princes are rebellious, and companions of thieves; every one loveth bribes, and followeth after rewards; they judge not the fatherless, neither doth the cause of the widow come unto them.

²⁴Therefore 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;

²⁵And I will turn My hand upon thee, and purge away thy dross as with lye, and will take away all thine alloy;

²⁶And I will restore thy judges as at the first, and thy counsellors as at the beginning; afterward thou shalt be called The city of righteousness, the faithful city.

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

²⁸But the destruction of the transgressors and the sinners shall be together, and they that forsake the LORD shall be consumed.
