16. Wash yourselves, make yourselves clean; put away the evil of your doings from before my eyes; cease to do evil;
17. learn to do good; seek judgment; restore unto the oppressed; hear the fatherless in right judgment; protect the widow.
18. Then come, shall the Lord say, and we shall be even; if your sins were as scarlet, they shall be made as white as snow; if they were red like crimson, they shall become as wool.
19. If ye are willing and hearken, ye shall eat the good of the land;
20. But if ye refuse and rebel, ye shall be devoured with the sword; for the mouth of the Lord has spoken it.
21. How is the faithful city become a harlot! It was full of judgment; righteousness lodged in it, but now murderers.
