Isaiah 65:1-7

God Reaches Out to the Unseeking

Isaiah 65:1-7
1
They have sought me that before asked not for me, they have found me that sought me not. I said: Behold me, behold me, to a nation that did not call upon my name.
2
I have spread forth my hands all the day to an unbelieving people, who walk in a way that is not good after their own thoughts.
3
A people that continually provoke me to anger before my face, that immolate in gardens, and sacrifice upon bricks.
4
That dwell in sepulchres, and sleep in the temple of idols: that eat swine's flesh, and profane broth is in their vessels.
5
That say: Depart from me, come not near me, because thou art unclean: these shall be smoke in my anger, a fire burning all the day.
6
Behold it is written before me: I will not be silent, but I will render and repay into their bosom.
7
Your iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together, saith the Lord, who have sacrificed upon the mountains, and have reproached me upon the hills; and I will measure back their first work in their bosom.
