Isaiah 1:8 MSG/NIV - Online Parallel Bible
| The Message (MSG) | New International Version (NIV) |
| 8 Daughter Zion is deserted - like a tumbledown shack on a dead-end street, Like a tarpaper shanty on the wrong side of the tracks, like a sinking ship abandoned by the rats. | 8 The Daughter of Zion is left like a shelter in a vineyard, like a hut in a field of melons, like a city under siege. |
