The Father everlasting, &c.
Wash you, wake you clean; put away the evil
of your
doings from before Mine eyes; cease to do evil;
Learn to do well; seek judgment, relieve the
oppressed;
judge the fatherless; plead for the widow:
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

Response 1.
|
Cherish the word, O Virgin Mary, which is
conveyed to thee
from the Lord through the Angel; thou shalt conceive in thy
womb, and bring forth both God and man: that thou mayest
be blessed among all women.

thou shalt be with child, and be a mother, yet know not a
man.
That thou mayest be blessed among women.

How is the faithful city become an harlot? It
was full of
judgment; righteousness lodged in it, but now murderers. {89}
Thy silver is become dross, thy wine mixed
with water;
thy princes are rebellious and companions of thieves: every
one loveth gifts, and followeth after rewards: they judge not
the fatherless, neither doth the cause of the widow come
unto them.
But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
Thanks be to God.

avenge me of Mine enemies.
And I will turn My hand upon thee, and purely
purge
away thy dross, and take away all thy tin;
And I will restore thy judges as at the
first, and thy
counsellors as at the beginning: afterward thou shalt be
