Isaiah 1:21-23

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

²¹ How the faithful city
    has become a whore!
    She that was full of justice,
righteousness lodged in her—
    but now murderers!
²² Your silver has become dross,
    your wine is mixed with water.
²³ Your princes are rebels
    and companions of thieves.
Everyone loves a bribe
    and runs after gifts.
They do not defend the orphan,
    and the widow’s cause does not come before them.
