Isaiah 66:1-3
Tree of Life Version
Tremble At His Word
66 Thus says Adonai:
“Heaven is My throne,
and the earth is My footstool.[a]
Where then is the House you would build for Me?
Where is the place of My rest?
2 For My hand has made all these things,
so all these things came to be,”
declares Adonai.
“But on this one will I look,
one humble and of a contrite spirit,
who trembles at My word.”
3 One who kills an ox
is like one who kills a man;
one who sacrifices a lamb
is like one who breaks a dog’s neck;
one who offers a grain offering
is like one who offers swine’s blood;
one who burns incense
is like one who blesses an idol.
They have chosen their own ways,
so their soul delights in their abominations.

Isaiah 66:1-3
New International Version
Judgment and Hope
66 This is what the Lord says:
“Heaven is my throne,(A)
and the earth is my footstool.(B)
Where is the house(C) you will build for me?
Where will my resting place be?
2 Has not my hand made all these things,(D)
and so they came into being?”
declares the Lord.
“These are the ones I look on with favor:
those who are humble and contrite in spirit,(E)
and who tremble at my word.(F)
3 But whoever sacrifices a bull(G)
is like one who kills a person,
and whoever offers a lamb
is like one who breaks a dog’s neck;
whoever makes a grain offering
is like one who presents pig’s(H) blood,
and whoever burns memorial incense(I)
is like one who worships an idol.
They have chosen their own ways,(J)
and they delight in their abominations;(K)
