To Live or Die, A Nation's Choice

Isaiah 1:16-20
 
16  Wash you, make you clean; put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes; cease to do evil; 
17  Learn to do well; seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widow. 
18  Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool. 
19  If ye be willing and obedient, 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 hath spoken it.
