Isaiah 65:1-7

God Reaches Out to the Unseeking

Isaiah 65:1-7
1
"I made myself accessible to those who didn't ask for me, I let myself be found by those who didn't seek me. I said, 'Here I am! Here I am!' to a nation not called by my name.
2
I spread out my hands all day long to a rebellious people who live in a way that is not good, who follow their own inclinations;
3
a people who provoke me to my face all the time, sacrificing in gardens and burning incense on bricks.
4
They sit among the graves and spend the night in caverns; they eat pig meat and their pots hold soup made from disgusting things.
5
They say, 'Keep your distance, don't come near me, because I am holier than you.' These are smoke in my nose, a fire that burns all day!
6
See, it is written before me; I will not be silent until I repay them; I will repay them to the full,
7
your own crimes and those of your ancestors together," says ADONAI. "They offered incense on the mountains and insulted me on the hills. First I will measure out their wages and then repay them in full."
