| 1:14 | bbe | Your new moons and your regular feasts are a grief to my soul: they are a weight in my spirit; I am crushed under them. |
| 1:1 | bbe | The vision of Isaiah, the son of Amoz, which he saw about Judah and Jerusalem, in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah. |
| 1:21 | bbe | The upright town has become untrue; there was a time when her judges gave right decisions, when righteousness had a resting-place in her, but now she is full of those who take men's lives. |
| 1:7 | bbe | Your country has become waste; your towns are burned with fire; as for your land, it is overturned before your eyes, made waste and overcome by men from strange lands. |
| 1:2 | bbe | Give ear, O heavens, and you, O earth, to the word which the Lord has said: I have taken care of my children till they became men, but their hearts have been turned away from me. |
| 1:11 | bbe | What use to me is the number of the offerings which you give me? says the Lord; your burned offerings of sheep, and the best parts of fat cattle, are a weariness to me; I take no pleasure in the blood of oxen, or of lambs, or of he-goats. |
| 1:8 | bbe | And the daughter of Zion has become like a tent in a vine-garden, like a watchman's house in a field of fruit, like a town shut in by armies. |
| 1:15 | bbe | And when your hands are stretched out to me, my eyes will be turned away from you: even though you go on making prayers, I will not give ear: your hands are full of blood. |
| 1:19 | bbe | If you will give ear to my word and do it, the good things of the land will be yours; |
| 1:24 | bbe | For this reason the Lord, the Lord of armies, the Strong One of Israel, has said, I will put an end to my haters, and send punishment on those who are against me; |
| 1:27 | bbe | Upright acts will be the price of Zion's forgiveness, and by righteousness will men be living there. |
| 1:30 | bbe | For you will be like a tree whose leaves have become dry, and like a garden without water. |
| 1:31 | bbe | And the strong will be as food for the fire, and his work as a flame; and they will be burned together, with no one to put out the fire. |
| 1:25 | bbe | And my hand will again be on you, washing away what is unclean as with soap, and taking away all your false metal; |
| 1:17 | bbe | Take pleasure in well-doing; let your ways be upright, keep down the cruel, give a right decision for the child who has no father, see to the cause of the widow. |
| 1:5 | bbe | Why will you have more and more punishment? why keep on in your evil ways? Every head is tired and every heart is feeble. |
| 1:26 | bbe | And I will give you judges again as at the first, and wise guides as in the past; then you will be named, The Town of Righteousness, the true town. |
| 1:4 | bbe | O nation full of sin, a people weighted down with crime, a generation of evil-doers, false-hearted children: they have gone away from the Lord, they have no respect for the Holy One of Israel, their hearts are turned back from him. |
| 1:12 | bbe | At whose request do you come before me, making my house unclean with your feet? |
| 1:20 | bbe | But if your hearts are turned against me, I will send destruction on you by the sword; so the Lord has said. |
| 1:10 | bbe | Give ear to the word of the Lord, you rulers of Sodom; let your hearts be turned to the law of our God, you people of Gomorrah. |
| 1:22 | bbe | Your silver is no longer true metal, your wine is mixed with water. |
| 1:9 | bbe | If the Lord of armies had not kept some at least of us safe, we would have been like Sodom, and the fate of Gomorrah would have been ours. |
| 1:16 | bbe | Be washed, make yourselves clean; put away the evil of your doings from before my eyes; let there be an end of sinning; |
| 1:28 | bbe | But a common destruction will overtake sinners and evil-doers together, and those who have gone away from the Lord will be cut off. |
| 1:3 | bbe | Even the ox has knowledge of its owner, and the ass of the place where its master puts its food: but Israel has no knowledge, my people give no thought to me. |
| 1:13 | bbe | Give me no more false offerings; the smoke of burning flesh is disgusting to me, so are your new moons and Sabbaths and your holy meetings. |
| 1:23 | bbe | Your chiefs have gone against the Lord, they have become friends of thieves; every one of them is looking for profit and going after rewards; they do not give right decisions for the child who has no father, and they do not let the cause of the widow come before them. |
| 1:29 | bbe | For you will be put to shame because of the trees of your desire, and because of the gardens of your pleasure. |
| 1:6 | bbe | The body, from head to foot, is all diseased; it is a mass of open wounds, marks of blows, and broken flesh: the flow of blood has not been stopped, and no oil has been put on the wounds. |
| 1:18 | bbe | Come now, and let us have an argument together, says the Lord: how may your sins which are red like blood be white as snow? how may their dark purple seem like wool? |
