Isaiah 1:5

 Isaiah 1:5

Why should ye be stricken any more? ye will revolt more and more: the whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint.


a. ASV:  Why will ye be still stricken, that ye revolt more and more? the whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint.  [Thomas Nelson & Sons first published the American Standard Version in 1901. This translation of the Bible is in the public domain.]


b. YLT:  Wherefore are ye stricken any more? Ye do add apostacy! Every head is become diseased, and every heart is sick.  [The Young's Literal Translation was translated by Robert Young, who believed in a strictly literal translation of God's word. This version of the Bible is in the public domain.]


c. Classic Amplified:  Why should you be stricken and punished any more [since it brings no correction]? You will revolt more and more. The whole head is sick, and the whole heart is faint (feeble, sick, and nauseated).
