is an offering of abomination unto Me;New moon and sabbath, the holding of convocations—I cannot endure iniquity along with the solemn assembly.14Your new moons and your appointed seasonsMy soul hateth;They are a burden unto Me;I am weary to bear them.15And when ye spread forth your hands,I will hide Mine eyes from you;Yea, when ye make many prayers,I will not hear;Your hands are full of blood.16Wash you, make you clean,Put away the evil of your doingsFrom before Mine eyes,Cease to do evil;17Learn to do well;Seek justice, relieve the oppressed,Judge the fatherless, plead for the widow. 18Come now, and let us reason together,Saith the Lord;Though your sins be as scarlet,They shall be as white as snow;Though they be red like crimson,They shall be as wool.19If ye be willing and obedient,Ye shall eat the good of the land;20But if ye refuse and rebel,Ye shall be devoured with the sword;For the mouth of the Lord hath spoken. 21How is the faithful cityBecome a harlot!She that was full of justice,Righteousness lodged in her,But now murderers.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.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.

       2The word that Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.

      2And it shall come to pass in the end of days,That the mountain of the Lord's house shall be established as the top of the mountains,And shall be exalted above the hills;And all nations shall flow unto it.3And many peoples shall go and say:'Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord,To the house of the God of Jacob;And He will teach us of His ways,And we will walk in His paths.'For out of Zion shall go forth the law,And the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.4And He shall judge between the nations,And shall decide for many peoples;And they shall beat their swords into plowshares,And their spears into pruning-hooks;Nation shall not lift up sword against nation,Neither shall they learn war any more. 5O house of Jacob, come ye, and let us walkIn the light of the Lord.6For Thou hast forsaken Thy people the house of Jacob;For they are replenished from the east,And with soothsayers like the Philistines,And they please themselves in the brood of aliens.7Their land also is full of silver and gold,Neither is there any end of their treasures;Their land also is full of horses, Neither is there any end of their chariots.8Their land also is full of idols;Every one worshippeth the work of his own hands,That which his own fingers have made.9And man boweth down,And man lowereth himself;And Thou canst not bear with them.10Enter into the rock,And hide thee in the dust,From before the terror of the Lord,And from the glory of His majesty.11The lofty looks of man shall be brought low,And the haughtiness of men shall be bowed down,And the Lord alone shall be exalted in that day. 12For the Lord of hosts hath a dayUpon all that is proud and lofty,And upon all that is lifted up, and it shall be brought low;13And upon all the cedars of LebanonThat are high and lifted up,And upon all the oaks of Bashan;14And upon all the high mountains,And upon all the hills that are lifted up; 15And upon every lofty tower,And upon every fortified wall;16And upon all the ships of Tarshish,And upon all delightful imagery.17And the loftiness of man shall be bowed down,And the haughtiness of men shall be brought low;And the Lord alone shall be exalted in that day. 18And the idols shall utterly pass away.19And men shall go into the caves of the rocks,And into the holes of the earth,From before the terror of the Lord,And from the glory of His majesty,When He ariseth to shake mightily the earth.20In that day a man shall cast awayHis idols of silver, and his idols of gold,Which they made for themselves to worship,To the moles and to the bats;21To go into the clefts of the rocks,And into the crevices of the crags,From before the terror of the Lord,And from the glory of His majesty,When he ariseth to shake mightily the earth. 22Cease ye from man, in whose nostrils is a breath;For how little is he to be accounted! 3For, behold, the Lord, the Lord of hosts,Doth take away from Jerusalem and from JudahStay and staff,Every stay of bread, and every stay of water;2The mighty man, and the man of war;The judge, and the prophet, And the diviner, and the elder;3The captain of fifty, and the man of rank,And the counsellor, and the cunning charmer, and the skilful enchanter.4And I will give children to be their princes,And babes shall rule over them.5And the people shall oppress one another,Every man his fellow, and every man his neighbour;The child shall behave insolently against the aged,And the base against the honourable,6For a man shall take hold of his brother of the house of his father:'Thou hast a mantle,Be thou our ruler,And let this ruin be under thy hand.'7In that day shall he swear, saying:'I will not be a healer;For in my house is neither bread nor a mantle;Ye shall not make me ruler of a people.'8For Jerusalem is ruined,And Judah is fallen;Because their tongue and their doings are against the Lord,To provoke the eyes of His glory. 9The show of their countenance doth witness against them;And they declare their sin as Sodom, they hide it not.Woe unto their soul!For they have wrought evil unto themselves.10Say ye of the righteous, that it shall be well with him;For they shall eat the fruit of their doings.11Woe unto the wicked! it shall be ill with him;For the work of his hands shall be done to him.12As for My people, a babe is their master,And women rule over them.O My people, they that lead thee cause thee to err,And destroy the way of thy paths. 13The Lord standeth up to plead,And standeth to judge the peoples.14The Lord will enter into judgmentWith the elders of His people, and the princes thereof:'It is ye that have eaten up the vineyard;The spoil of the poor is in your houses;15What mean ye that ye crush My people,And grind the face of the poor?'Saith the Lord, the Lord of hosts.16Moreover the Lord said:Because the daughters of Zion are haughty,And walk with stretched-forth necksAnd wanton eyes,Walking and mincing as they go,And making a tinkling with their feet;17Therefore the Lord will smite with a scabThe crown of the head of the daughters of Zion,And the Lord will lay bare their secret parts.

      18In that day the Lord will take away the bravery of their anklets, and the fillets, and the crescents; 19the pendants, and the bracelets, and the veils; 20the headtires, and the armlets, and the sashes, and the corselets, and the amulets; 21the rings, and the nosejewels; 22the aprons, and the mantelets, and the cloaks, and the girdles; 23and the gauze robes, and the fine linen, and the turbans, and the mantles. 24And it shall come to pass, that

      Instead of sweet spices there shall be rottenness;And instead of a girdle rags;And instead of curled hair baldness;And instead of a stomacher a girding of sackcloth;Branding instead of beauty.25Thy men shall fall by the sword,And thy mighty in the war.26And her gates shall lament and mourn;And utterly bereft she shall sit upon the ground.

      4And seven women shall take hold of one man in that day, saying: 'We will eat our own bread, and wear our own apparel; only let us be called by thy name; take thou away our reproach.'

      2In that day shall the growth of the Lord be beautiful and glorious,And the fruit of the land excellent and comelyFor them that are escaped of Israel.

      3And it shall come to pass, that he that is left in Zion, and he that remaineth in Jerusalem, shall be called holy, even every one that is written unto life in Jerusalem; 4when the Lord shall have washed away the filth of the daughters of Zion, and shall have purged the blood of Jerusalem from the midst thereof, by the spirit of judgment, and by the spirit of destruction. 5And the Lord will create
