Rotherham⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁴ Alas! a nation––committing sin, a people––burdened with iniquity, a seed––practising wickedness, sons––acting corruptly. They have, forsaken Yahweh, despised the Holy One of Israel,––Are estranged and gone back. ⁵ Why should ye be smitten any more? Ye would again, turn aside! The whole head is sick, And the whole heart faint: ⁶ From the sole of the foot, even unto the head, there is in it no soundness, Bruise and stripe and newly–made wound,––They have not been pressed out, nor bound up, nor soothed with oil.
