21  How the faithful city

^rhas become a whore,¹

^sshe who was full of justice!

Righteousness lodged in her,

but now murderers.

26  And I will restore your judges ^bas at the first,

and your counselors as at the beginning.

Afterward ^cyou shall be called the city of righteousness,

the faithful city.”

7  ^dFor the vineyard of the Lord of hosts

is the house of Israel,

and the men of Judah

are his pleasant planting;

and he looked for justice,

but behold, bloodshed;¹

for righteousness,

but behold, an outcry!²
