Isaiah 57:4-11
4Who are you mocking? Who are you opening your mouth and sticking out your tongue at? Isn’t it you, you rebellious children, you offspring of liars,
5who burn with lust among the oaks, under every green tree, who slaughter children in the wadis below the clefts of the rocks?
6Your portion is among the smooth stones of the wadi; indeed, they are your lot. You have even poured out a drink offering to them; you have offered a grain offering; should I be satisfied with these?
7You have placed your bed on a high and lofty mountain; you also went up there to offer sacrifice.
8You have set up your memorial behind the door and doorpost. For away from me, you stripped, went up, and made your bed wide, and you have made a bargain for yourself with them. You have loved their bed; you have gazed on their genitals.
9You went to the king with oil and multiplied your perfumes; you sent your envoys far away and sent them down even to Sheol.
10You became weary on your many journeys, but you did not say, “It’s hopeless!” You found a renewal of your strength; therefore you did not grow weak.
11Who was it you dreaded and feared, so that you lied and didn’t remember me or take it to heart? I have kept silent for a long time, haven’t I? So you do not fear me.
