Isaiah 1:16

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Wash you, make you clean; put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes; cease to do evil;

Then produce fruit that will be consistent with your professed repentance!

You must lay aside with your former habits your old self which is going to ruin through its deceptive passions.

For God's mercy has appeared and brought salvation to all men,

Free yourselves, therefore, from all malice, deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and slander of any kind,

Your love must be genuine. You must hate what is wrong, and hold to what is right.

So you must lay aside falsehood and each tell his neighbor the truth, for we are parts of one another.

Let him turn away from evil and do right, Let him seek peace and go after it.
