Isaiah 1:2-4

EJ2000(i) 2 ¶ Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth, for the LORD speaks, I have nourished and brought up sons, and they have rebelled against me. 3 The ox knows his owner, and the ass his master’s crib; but Israel does not know, my people do not have understanding. 4 O sinful nation, people laden with iniquity, generation of evildoers, corrupt sons! They have forsaken the LORD; they have provoked the Holy One of Israel unto anger; they have turned back.
