1:4
the people weighed down by evil deeds.
They are offspring who do wrong,
children
They have abandoned the Lord,
and rejected the Holy One of Israel.
They are alienated from him.
1:5
Why do you continue to rebel?
Your head has a massive wound,
your whole body is weak.
1:6 From the soles of your feet to your head,
there is no spot that is unharmed.
There are only bruises, cuts,
and open wounds.
They have not been cleansed
nor have they been treated
1:7 Your land is devastated,
your cities burned with fire.
Right before your eyes your crops
are being destroyed by foreign invaders.
They leave behind devastation and destruction.
1:8 Daughter Zion
like a hut in a vineyard,
or a shelter in a cucumber field;
she is a besieged city.
