Isaiah 65:2-7

2I stretched out my hands all day long to stubborn people. They chose to go the wrong direction. They followed their own plans.

3These people constantly and openly provoked me. They offered sacrifices in gardens and burnt incense on brick altars.

4They sat among the graves and spent their nights in caves. They ate pork and in their pots made broth from unclean foods.

5They said, “Stay away! Don’t touch me! I’m holier than you are.” They have become like smoke in my nose, like a smoldering fire all day long.

6“Look! It is written in front of me. I will not be silent, but I will repay. I will repay you in full.

7I will repay you for your sins and for the sins of your ancestors,” says the Lord. They burnt incense on the mountains and slandered me on the hills, so I will be the first to pay them back in full.
