Isaiah 1:21-23
The Unfaithful City
21 How the faithful cityhhas become a whore, ▼
▼Or become unchaste
jshe who was full of justice!
Righteousness lodged in her,
but now murderers.
22 kYour silver has become dross,
your best wine mixed with water.
23Your princes are rebels
and companions of thieves.
Everyone lloves a bribe
and runs after gifts.
mThey do not bring justice to the fatherless,
and the widow’s cause does not come to them.
Luke 13:34
34 nO Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the city that okills the prophets and stones those who are sent to it! pHow often would I have qgathered ryour children together sas a hen gathers her brood tunder her wings, and uyou were not willing!
