Isaiah 65:11-16

11But you who 1forsake the Lord, Who forget My 2holy mountain, Who set a table for 3Fortune, And who fill cups with mixed wine for 4Destiny,12I will destine you for the 5sword, And all of you will bow down to the 6slaughter. Because I called, but you 7did not answer; I spoke, but you did not hear. And you did evil in My sight And chose that in which I did not delight.”

13Therefore, thus says the Lord 8God, “Behold, My servants will 9eat, but you will be 10hungry. Behold, My servants will 11drink, but you will be 12thirsty. Behold, My servants will 13rejoice, but you will be 14put to shame.14Behold, My servants will 15shout joyfully with a glad heart, But you will 16cry out with a 17heavy heart, And you will wail with a broken spirit.15You will leave your name for a 18curse to My chosen ones, And the Lord 19God will slay you. But 20My servants will be called by 21another name.16Because he who 22is blessed in the earth Will 23be blessed by the 24God of truth; And he who swears in the earth Will 25swear by the God of truth; Because the former troubles are forgotten, And because they are hidden from My sight!
