Isaiah 66:1-3

1ThusH3541 saysH559 the LordH3068, “1HeavenH8064 is My throneH3678 and the earthH776 is My footstoolH1916H7272. WhereH335 thenH2088 is a 2houseH1004 you could buildH1129 for Me? And whereH335 is a placeH4725 that 3I may restH4496?2For 4My handH3027 madeH6213 allH3605 theseH428 thingsH428, Thus allH3605 theseH428 thingsH428 cameH1961 into beingH1961,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068. “But to thisH2088 oneH2088 I will lookH5027, To him whoH6041 is humbleH6041 and 5contriteH5223 of spiritH7307, and whoH2730 6tremblesH2730 at My wordH1697.

3“But he who killsH7819 an oxH7794 is like one who slaysH5221 a manH376; He who sacrificesH2076 a lambH7716 is like the one who breaksH6202 a dog’sH3611 neckH6202; He who offersH5927 a grain offeringH4503 is like one who offers 7swine’sH2386 bloodH1818; He who 89burnsH2142 incenseH3828 is like the one who blessesH1288 an idolH205. As they have chosenH977 their 10own waysH1870, And their soulH5315 delightsH2654 in their 11abominationsH8251,
