1 The vision of Isaiah the son of Amoz, which he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah.
2 Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth.For the Lord has spoken:I have nourished and brought up children,and they have rebelled against Me;
3 the ox knows his owner,and the donkey his master’s crib,but Israel does not know;My people do not consider.
4 Alas, sinful nation,a people laden with iniquity,a brood of evildoers,children who deal corruptly!They have forsaken the Lord,they have provoked the Holy One of Israel to anger,they are estranged and backward.
