Isaiah 17:6-8

6Yet 1gleanings will be left in it like the 2shaking of an olive tree, Two or three olives on the topmost bough, Four or five on the branches of a fruitful tree, Declares the Lord, the God of Israel.7In that day man will 3have regard for his Maker And his eyes will look to the Holy One of Israel.8He will not have regard for the 4altars, the work of his hands, Nor will he look to that which his 5fingers have made, Even the 67Asherim and 8incense stands.
