Isaiah 1:22-24

Christian Standard Bible Anglicised

²² Your silver has become dross to be discarded,
your beer^[a] is diluted with water.
²³ Your rulers are rebels,
friends of thieves.^(A)
They all love a bribe
and chase after backhanders.^(B)
They do not defend the rights of the fatherless,
and the widow’s case never comes before them.^(C)
