Isaiah 65:2-4
New International Reader's Version
2 All day long I have held out my hands
to welcome a stubborn nation.
They lead sinful lives.
They go where their evil thoughts take them.
3 They are always making me very angry.
They do it right in front of me.
They offer sacrifices in the gardens of other gods.
They burn incense on altars that are made out of bricks.
4 They sit among the graves.
They spend their nights talking to the spirits of the dead.
They eat the meat of pigs.
Their cooking pots hold soup that has ‘unclean’ meat in it.
Isaiah 65:2-4
New International Version
2 All day long I have held out my hands
to an obstinate people,(A)
who walk in ways not good,
pursuing their own imaginations(B)—
3 a people who continually provoke me
to my very face,(C)
offering sacrifices in gardens(D)
and burning incense(E) on altars of brick;
4 who sit among the graves(F)
and spend their nights keeping secret vigil;
who eat the flesh of pigs,(G)
and whose pots hold broth of impure meat;
