And I will restore thy judges as at the first, and thy counsellors as at the beginning: afterward thou shalt be called, The city of righteousness, the faithful city.

The verse 26 is found in chapter 1 of Isaiah. The accusation leads to a concrete call to repentance. Washing, cleansing, ceasing to do evil, seeking justice, and defending the vulnerable show that biblical conversion is not merely a matter of religious acts, but of ethical transformation. The promise to cleanse sin like snow contrasts with judgment upon the rebellious and establishes from the beginning the tension between purification and judgment that runs throughout Isaiah.

und dir wieder Richter geben, wie zuvor waren, und Ratsherren wie im Anfang. Alsdann wirst du eine Stadt der Gerechtigkeit und eine fromme Stadt heißen.
Y restituiré tus jueces como al principio, y tus consejeros como de primero: entonces te llamarán Ciudad de justicia, Ciudad fiel.
Je rétablirai tes juges tels qu'ils étaient autrefois, Et tes conseillers tels qu'ils étaient au commencement. Après cela, on t'appellera ville de la justice, Cité fidèle.
e ristabilirò i tuoi rettori, come erano da principio; ed i tuoi consiglieri, come erano al cominciamento; dopo questo tu sarai chiamata: Città di giustizia, Città fedele.
E te restituirei os teus juízes, como foram dantes; e os teus conselheiros, como antigamente; e então te chamarão cidade de justiça, cidade fiel.
我必回復你的審判官,像起初一樣, 回復你的謀士,如起先一般。 然後,你必稱為公義之城, 忠信之邑。」
