Isaiah 1:5-7

New Century Version

⁵ Why should you continue to be punished?
    Why do you continue to turn against him?
Your whole head is hurt,
    and your whole heart is sick.
⁶ There is no healthy spot
    from the bottom of your foot to the top of your head;
    you are covered with wounds, hurts, and open sores
that are not cleaned and covered,
    and no medicine takes away the pain.

⁷ Your land is ruined;
    your cities have been burned with fire.
While you watch,
    your enemies are stealing everything from your land;
    it is ruined like a country destroyed by enemies.
