Isaiah 1:2-4
Evangelical Heritage Version

Warning to a Sinful Nation

2 Hear this, O heavens,
and listen, O earth, for the Lord has spoken.
    I have raised children and brought them up,
    but they have rebelled against me.
3     The ox knows its owner,
    and the donkey knows its owner’s manger,
    but Israel does not know.
    My people do not understand.

4 How terrible it will be for that sinful nation,
for a people loaded with guilt,
offspring[a] who act wickedly,
children who are corrupt!
They have forsaken the Lord.
They have despised the Holy One of Israel.
They have deserted him and turned back.
