Isaiah 66:1
1599 Geneva Bible
66 1 God dwelleth not in Temples made with hands. 3 He despiseth sacrifices done without mercy and faith. 5 God comforteth them that are troubled for his sake. 19 The vocation of the Gentiles. 23 The perpetual Sabbath. 24 The punishment of the wicked is everlasting.
1 Thus saith the Lord, (A)The [a]heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool: where is that house that ye will build unto me? and where is that place of my rest?
