Cry aloud in strength, and do not spare; lift up your voice like a trumpet, and announce to my people their sins and to the house of Jacob their lawless deeds.

Day after day they seek me, and they desire to know my ways, as a people that had done righteousness and had not forsaken the judgment of their God; they now ask of me righteous judgment and desire to draw near to God.
