Isaiah 1:7 in context
- 5Why should you be beaten more,
that you revolt more and more?
The whole head is sick,
and the whole heart faint. - 6From the sole of the foot even to the head there is no soundness in it:
wounds, welts, and open sores.
They haven’t been closed, bandaged, or soothed with oil. - 7Your country is desolate.
Your cities are burned with fire.
Strangers devour your land in your presence
and it is desolate,
as overthrown by strangers. - 8The daughter of Zion is left like a shelter in a vineyard,
like a hut in a field of melons,
like a besieged city. - 9Unless Yahweh of Armies had left to us a very small remnant,
we would have been as Sodom.
We would have been like Gomorrah.
