18"Comenow, and 1let us reason together," Says the LORD, "2Though your sins are as scarlet, They will be as white as snow; Though they are red like crimson, They will be like wool.
16
"Wash yourselves, make yourselves clean; Remove the evil of your deeds from My sight . Cease to do evil,
17
Learn to do good; Seek justice, Reprove the ruthless, Defend the orphan, Plead for the widow.

"Come now, and let us reason together," Says the LORD , "Though your sins are as scarlet, They will be as white as snow; Though they are red like crimson, They will be like wool.

"If you consent and obey, You will eat the best of the land;
20
"But if you refuse and rebel, You will be devoured by the sword." Truly, the mouth of the LORD has spoken.
