Isaiah 1:5
Why should ye be stricken any more? ye will revolt more and more: the whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint.
KJV
Super quo percutiam vos ultra, addentes prævaricationem ? omne caput languidum, et omne cor mœrens.
Vulgate
τί ἔτι πληγῆτε προστιθέντες ἀνομίαν; πᾶσα κεφαλὴ εἰς πόνον καὶ πᾶσα καρδία εἰς λύπην.

4 passages from patristic writers, Reformers, and church catechisms citing this verse.
You must be convinced not only of your actual sins but of your original sin. We are conceived and born in sin. The whole head is sick, and the whole heart is faint. We are by nature children of wrath, dead in trespasses and sins. Until a man is truly sensible of his original depravity, he can never come to a true knowledge of himself.
