Isaiah 1:5

Why should ye be smitten any more? Ye would again turn aside! The whole head is sick, And the whole heart faint:

The Emphasised Bible by J. B. Rotherham

In The King James Version

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

In Context

6From the sole of the foot even unto the head, there is in it no soundness, Bruise and stripe and newly-made wound,—They have not been pressed out, nor bound up, nor soothed with oil.
