Isaiah 1:2 in context

  1. 1The vision of Isaiah the son of Amoz, which he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem, in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah.
  2. 2Hear, heavens,
    and listen, earth; for Yahweh has spoken:
    “I have nourished and brought up children
    and they have rebelled against me.
  3. 3The ox knows his owner,
    and the donkey his master’s crib;
    but Israel doesn’t know.
    My people don’t consider.”
  4. 4Ah sinful nation,
    a people loaded with iniquity,
    offspring of evildoers,
    children who deal corruptly!
    They have forsaken Yahweh.
    They have despised the Holy One of Israel.
    They are estranged and backward.
