Isaiah

Isaiah 1:1-6

Isaiah 1:16-20

"For the Lord has called you 

like a wife deserted and grieved in spirit, 

like a wife of youth when she is cast off, 

says your God. 

For a brief moment I deserted you, 

but with great compassion I will gather you. 

In overflowing anger for a moment 

I hid my face from you, 

but with everlasting love I will have compassion on you,” 

says the Lord, your Redeemer. "

Justice is turned back, 

and righteousness stands far away; 

for truth has stumbled in the public squares, 

and uprightness cannot enter."
