Isaiah 1:21-23

Contemporary English Version

²¹ Jerusalem, you are like
    an unfaithful wife.
Once your judges were honest
    and your people lived right;
now you are a city
    full of murderers.
²² Your silver is fake,
and your wine
    is watered down.
²³ Your leaders have rejected me
    to become friends of crooks;
your rulers are looking
    for gifts and bribes.
Widows and orphans
    never get a fair trial.
