Isaiah 66:16-18
1599 Geneva Bible
16 For the Lord will judge with fire, and with his sword all flesh, and the flame of the Lord shall be many.
17 They that sanctify [a]themselves, and purify themselves in the gardens behind one tree in the midst eating [b]swine’s flesh, and such abomination, even the mouse, shall be consumed together, saith the Lord.
18 For I will visit their works, and their imaginations, for it shall come that I will gather all nations, and tongues, and they shall come, and see my [c]glory.
