Isaiah 57:9-11
Common English Bible
9 You went down to Molech[a] with oil,
and you slathered on your ointments;
you sent your messengers far away,
sent them down to the underworld.[b]
10 Worn out by all your efforts,
yet you wouldn’t say, “This is useless.”
You found new strength;
therefore, you weren’t tired.
11 Whom did you dread and fear so that you lied,
didn’t remember me or give me a thought?
Isn’t it because I was silent and closed my eyes
that you stopped fearing me?
