Isaiah 1:24-31

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.

²⁹For they shall be ashamed of the terebinths which ye have desired, and ye shall be confounded for the gardens that ye have chosen.

³⁰For ye shall be as a terebinth whose leaf fadeth, and as a garden that hath no water.

³¹And the strong shall be as tow, and his work as a spark; and they shall both burn together, and none shall quench them.
