Isaiah 57:9-11
EasyEnglish Bible
Isaiah 57:9-11
EasyEnglish Bible
9 You take olive oil as a gift to your king,
and also many perfumes.[a]
You send your people far away
to get news of other gods.
You even talk to the spirits of dead people.
10 You become very tired,
because you travel so far.
But you would never say,
“This is useless!”
Instead, you find new strength,
and you do not stop.
11 What idol are you so afraid of,
that you choose to deceive me?
You seem to have forgotten about me.
You do not think about me at all.
Have I been silent for too long?
Is that why you no longer respect me?
