16 “aWash yourselves, bpurify yourselves;
cRemove the evil of your deeds from before My eyes.
dCease to do evil,
17 Learn to do good;
aSeek justice,
Reprove the ruthless,
bExecute justice for the orphan,
Plead for the widow.
18 “Come now, and alet us reason together,”
Says Yahweh,
“bThough your sins are as scarlet,
They will be as white as snow;
Though they are red like crimson,
They will be like wool.
