Isaiah 17:7-9
New Century Version
Isaiah 17:7-9
New Century Version
7 At that time people will look to God, their Maker;
their eyes will see the Holy One of Israel.
8 They will not trust the altars they have made,
nor will they trust what their hands have made,
not even the Asherah idols and altars.
9 In that day all their strong cities will be empty. They will be like the cities the Hivites and the Amorites left when the Israelites came to take the land. Everything will be ruined.

7 In that day(A) people will look(B) to their Maker(C)
and turn their eyes to the Holy One(D) of Israel.
8 They will not look to the altars,(E)
the work of their hands,(F)
and they will have no regard for the Asherah poles[a](G)
and the incense altars their fingers(H) have made.
9 In that day their strong cities, which they left because of the Israelites, will be like places abandoned to thickets and undergrowth.(I) And all will be desolation.
