Isaiah 1:5-10

⁵Why will ye be stricken yet more? that ye increase the revolt? every head is sick, and every heart is faint.

⁶From the sole of the foot even unto the head there is no soundness in it; but wounds, and bruises, and putrefying sores: they have not been closed, nor bound up, nor mollified with oil.

⁷Your country is desolate, your cities are burnt with fire; your soil—in your presence, strangers devour it, and it is desolate, as overthrown by strangers.

⁸And left is the daughter of Zion as a hut in a vineyard, as a lodge in a cucumber field, as a besieged city.

⁹Unless the Lord of hosts had left unto us a remnant ever so small, like Sodom should we have been, unto Gomorrah should we have been compared.

¹⁰Hear the word of the Lord, ye rulers of Sodom: give ear unto the law of our God, ye people of Gomorrah.
