Isaiah 1:21 - The Message

Oh! Can you believe it? The chaste city
   has become a whore!
She was once all justice,
   everyone living as good neighbors,
And now they’re all
   at one another’s throats.
Your coins are all counterfeits.
   Your wine is watered down.
Your leaders are turncoats
   who keep company with crooks.
They sell themselves to the highest bidder
   and grab anything not nailed down.
They never stand up for the homeless,
   never stick up for the defenseless.
