1 The vision concerning Judah and Jerusalem that Isaiah son of Amoz saw during the reigns of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz and Hezekiah, kings of Judah.
2 Hear me, you heavens! Listen, earth!For the Lord has spoken:‘I reared children and brought them up,but they have rebelled against me.
3 The ox knows its master,the donkey its owner’s manger,but Israel does not know,my people do not understand.’
4 Woe to the sinful nation,a people whose guilt is great,a brood of evildoers,children given to corruption!They have forsaken the Lord;they have spurned the Holy One of Israeland turned their backs on him.
5 Why should you be beaten any more?Why do you persist in rebellion?Your whole head is injured,your whole heart afflicted.
