Isaiah 1:2

[The first 12 chapters of Isaiah form the first of seven major sections that make up the entire book. These chapters form a chiasm, with Isaiah's calling at the center of chapter 6.
A Introduction – Israel's disobedience (Isa. 1:1–31)
B Visions of future restoration (Isa. 2:1–4:6)
C Coming judgment on Judah (Isa. 5:1–30)
D Isaiah's calling (Isa. 6:1–13)
C´ Coming judgment on Judah (Isa. 7:1–8:18)
B´ Visions of future restoration (Isa. 8:19–11:9)
A´ Summary – Israel's future restoration (Isa. 11:10–12:6)]

Listen, heavens,
and give ear (listen), O earth,
for the Lord (Yahweh) has spoken:
"I have nourished and brought up children,
but they have rebelled against me.
[The expression 'Hear, O heavens, and give ear (listen), O earth!' is already used in Deut. 4:26, where the universe and creation are called as two witnesses to what God does on earth (Deut. 19:15). It is the same here when Zechariah wants the witnesses to hear what God says to Judah and Jerusalem.]
