Isaiah 48:8: Thou wast called a transgressor from the womb
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
Evil I from the womb have been,
Born, altogether born in sin,
In sin conceived and bred,
My actual guilt's enormous load
Calls down the fiercest wrath of God
On my devoted head.
