Isaiah 1:26–28

26 I will restore your leaders as in days of old,

your rulers as at the beginning.

Afterward you will be called

the City of Righteousness,

the Faithful City.”

27 Zion will be delivered with justice,

her penitent ones with righteousness.

28 But rebels and sinners will both be broken,

and those who forsake the Lord will perish.

26 And I will restore your judges as at the first,

and your counselors as at the beginning.

Afterward you shall be called the city of righteousness,

the faithful city.”

27 Zion shall be redeemed by justice,

and those in her who repent, by righteousness.

28 But rebels and sinners shall be broken together,

and those who forsake the Lord shall be consumed.

26 And I will restore thy judges as at the first,

And thy counsellers as at the beginning:

Afterward thou shalt be called,

The city of righteousness, the faithful city.

27 Zion shall be redeemed with judgment,

And her converts with righteousness.

28 And the destruction of the transgressors and of the sinners shall be together,

And they that forsake the Lord shall be consumed.

26 Then I will give you good judges again

and wise counselors like you used to have.

Then Jerusalem will again be called the Home of Justice

and the Faithful City.”

27 Zion will be restored by justice;

those who repent will be revived by righteousness.

28 But rebels and sinners will be completely destroyed,

and those who desert the Lord will be consumed.

26 I will bring back judges as you had long ago;

your counselors will be like those you had in the beginning.

Then you will be called the City That Is Right with God,

the Loyal City.”

27 By doing what is fair,

Jerusalem will be free again.

By doing what is right,

her people who come back to the Lord will have freedom.

28 But sinners and those who turn against him will be destroyed;

those who have left the Lord will die.

26 and I will restore thy judges as at the first, and thy counsellors as at the beginning: afterward thou shalt be called The city of righteousness, a faithful town. 27 Zion shall be redeemed with justice, and her converts with righteousness. 28 But the destruction of transgressors and sinners shall be together, and they that forsake Jehovah shall be consumed.

26 and I will restore thy judges as at the first, and thy counsellors as at the beginning. Afterwards thou shalt be called, Town of righteousness, Faithful city. 27 Zion shall be redeemed with judgment, and they that return of her with righteousness. 28 But the ruin of the transgressors and of the sinners shall be together; and they that forsake Jehovah shall be consumed.

26 I will give you judges like you had long ago, 

advisers like you had in the beginning. 

After that you will be called the Righteous City, 

the Faithful Town.” 

27 Zion will be pardoned by ⸤the Lord’s⸥ justice, 

and those who return will be pardoned 

by ⸤the Lord’s⸥ righteousness. 

28 Rebels and sinners will be crushed at the same time, 

and those who abandon the Lord will come to an end. 

26 I will restore your judges to what they once were,

and your advisers to their former state.

Afterward you will be called the Righteous City,

a Faithful City.”

27 Zion will be redeemed by justice,

her repentant ones by righteousness.

28 But both rebels and sinners will be destroyed,

and those who abandon the Lord will perish.

26 And I will restore your judges as at the first

and your counselors as at the beginning.

Afterward you shall be called the city of righteousness,

the faithful city.

27 Zion shall be redeemed by justice,

and those in her who repent, by righteousness.

28 But rebels and sinners shall be destroyed together,

and those who forsake the Lord shall be consumed.

26 And I will restore your judges, as at the first,

and your counselors, as at the beginning.

After this you will be called the city of righteousness,

faithful city.

27 Zion will be redeemed by justice,

and those of her who repent, by righteousness.

28 But the destruction of rebels and sinners shall be together,

and those who forsake Yahweh will perish.

26 I will give judges to you like the ones you had long ago.

I will give you advisers like those you had at the beginning.

Then you will be called

The City That Does What Is Right.

You will also be called The Faithful City.”

27 Zion will be saved when others are treated fairly.

Those who are sorry for their sins will be saved

when what is right is done.

28 But sinners and those who refuse to obey the Lord will be destroyed.

And those who desert the Lord will die.

26 “Then I will restore your judges as at the first,

And your counselors as at the beginning;

After that you will be called the city of righteousness,

A faithful city.”

27 Zion will be redeemed with justice

And her repentant ones with righteousness.

28 But transgressors and sinners will be crushed together,

And those who forsake the Lord will come to an end.
