Isaiah 65:10-12
EasyEnglish Bible
Isaiah 65:10-12
EasyEnglish Bible
10 Sharon will become a field where sheep safely eat grass.
Cows will rest in the Valley of Achor.
Those places will belong to my people,
those who want to serve me.
11 But punishment will come
to those people who turn away from the Lord.
You forget to worship me on my holy mountain.[a]
Instead, you prepare food and wine
to offer to your false gods called “Luck” and “Fate”.
12 So this will be your fate:
a sword will kill you.
You will all bend down low for someone to kill you.
This will happen because you did not answer me
when I spoke to you.
You did not even listen to my words.
You did evil things against me.
You chose to do things that I would hate.’

New International Version
10 Sharon(A) will become a pasture for flocks,(B)
and the Valley of Achor(C) a resting place for herds,
for my people who seek(D) me.
11 “But as for you who forsake(E) the Lord
and forget my holy mountain,(F)
who spread a table for Fortune
and fill bowls of mixed wine(G) for Destiny,
12 I will destine you for the sword,(H)
and all of you will fall in the slaughter;(I)
for I called but you did not answer,(J)
I spoke but you did not listen.(K)
You did evil in my sight
and chose what displeases me.”(L)
