Isaiah 1:1-5

The vision of Isaiah the son of Amoz concerning Judah and Jerusalem, which he saw during the reigns of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah.

Listen, heavens, and hear, earth; For the Lord has spoken: “Sons I have raised and brought up, But they have revolted against Me.

“An ox knows its owner, And a donkey its master’s manger, But Israel does not know, My people do not understand.”

Oh, sinful nation, People weighed down with guilt, Offspring of evildoers, Sons who act corruptly! They have abandoned the Lord, They have despised the Holy One of Israel, They have turned away from Him.

Where will you be stricken again, As you continue in your rebellion? The entire head is sick And the entire heart is faint.
