The verse 29 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.

Denn sie müssen zu Schanden werden über den Eichen, daran ihr Lust habt, und schamrot werden über den Gärten, die ihr erwählt,
Entonces os avergonzarán los olmos que amasteis, y os afrentarán los bosques que escogisteis.
Porque se avergonzarán de las encinas que ustedes desearon, y ustedes quedarán abochornados por los jardines que escogieron.
On aura honte à cause des térébinthes auxquels vous prenez plaisir, Et vous rougirez à cause des jardins dont vous faites vos délices;
Perciocchè voi sarete svergognati per le querce che avete amate, e confusi per li giardini che avete scelti.
Porque vos envergonhareis pelos carvalhos que cobiçastes, e sereis confundidos pelos jardins que escolhestes.
那等人必因所喜愛的聖樹抱愧; 你們必因所選擇的園子 蒙羞,
