Isaiah 65:8
Compare all
6 “Behold, ait is written before Me:
bI will not keep silence, cbut will repay—
Even repay into their bosom— 
7 Your iniquities and athe iniquities of your fathers together,”
Says the Lord,
b“Who have burned incense on the mountains
cAnd blasphemed Me on the hills;
Therefore I will measure their former work into their bosom.”  
8 Thus says the Lord:
“As the new wine is found in the cluster,
And one says, ‘Do not destroy it,
For aa blessing is in it,’
So will I do for My servants’ sake,
That I may not destroy them ball. 
9 I will bring forth descendants from Jacob,
And from Judah an heir of My mountains;
My aelect shall inherit it,
And My servants shall dwell there. 
10 aSharon shall be a fold of flocks,
And bthe Valley of Achor a place for herds to lie down,
For My people who have csought Me. 
11 “But you are those who forsake the Lord,
Who forget aMy holy mountain,
Who prepare ba table for Gad,
And who furnish a drink offering for1 Meni. 
12 Therefore I will number you for the sword,
And you shall all bow down to the slaughter;
aBecause, when I called, you did not answer;
When I spoke, you did not hear,
But did evil before My eyes,
And chose that in which I do not delight.”
