Isaiah 1:18-20

New International Reader's Version

¹⁸ “Come. Let us settle this matter,”
    says the Lord.
“Even though your sins are bright red,
    they will be as white as snow.
Even though they are deep red,
    they will be white like wool.
¹⁹ But you have to be willing to change and obey me.
    If you are, you will eat the good things that grow on the land.
²⁰ But if you are not willing to obey me,
    you will be killed by swords.”
The Lord has spoken.
