Isa 3:9 | MHM | STEP | Judgments Denounced. In these verses, God continues to bring charges against His people. The main reason for God’s anger is their open and shameless sin. Their leaders are corrupt, and those in power hurt the poor and weak. Yet, God will judge each person fairly—He will protect the righteous and bring trouble to the wicked. This passage reminds us that our actions have consequences and that God’s judgment is always just. v. 9 : The people have become shameless in their sins. Their faces show no embarrassment or guilt. They act openly, like the people of Sodom, proud of their wrongdoings (Genesis 13:13; Genesis 19:5 ). Because they do not hide their sin or feel shame, they are close to ruin. Sin damages the soul most of all, and those who are past feeling shame are in great danger (Jeremiah 6:15 ).
