Isaiah 57:3-9

3“But comeH7126 hereH2008, youH859 sonsH1121 of a sorceressH6049, you offspringH2233 of adulterersH5003 and prostitutesH2181!4WhomH5921H4310 are you mockingH6026? AtH5921 whomH4310 do you sneerH7337H6310 and stick outH748 your tongueH3956? Are youH859 notH3808 childrenH3206 of transgressionH6588, offspringH2233 of deceitH8267,5who burn with lustH2552 among the oaksH352, underH8478 everyH3605 luxuriantH7488 treeH6086, who slaughterH7819 your childrenH3206 in the valleysH5158, underH8478 the cleftsH5585 of the rocksH5553?6Your portionH2506 is among the smoothH2511 stones of the valleyH5158; indeed, theyH1992 are your lotH1486. EvenH1571 to them you have poured outH8210 a drink offeringH5262 and offeredH5927 a grain offeringH4503. Should I relentH5162 because ofH5921 theseH428?

7OnH5921 a highH1364 and loftyH5375 hillH2022 you have madeH7760 your bedH4904,andH1571 thereH8033 you went upH5927 to offerH2076 sacrificesH2077.8BehindH310 the doorH1817 and doorpostH4201you have set upH7760 your memorialH2146.Forsaking MeH3588H854, you uncoveredH1540 your bedH4904;you climbed upH5927 and opened it wideH7337.And you have made a pactH3772 with those whose bedH4904 you have lovedH157;you have gazedH2372 upon their nakednessH3027.9You wentH7788 toH4428 Molech1 with oilH8081and multipliedH7235 your perfumesH7547.You have sentH7971 your envoysH67352 a great distanceH7350;you have descendedH8213H5704 even toH5704 Sheol itselfH7585.
