|

1 “I was sought by those who did not ask;
|
||||
I was found by those who did not seek me.
|
||||
I said, 'Here I am, here I am,'
|
||||
I said, ‘Here I am, here I am,’
|
||||
to a nation that did not call on my name.
|
||||
|
||||
2. I spread out my hands all day long
|
||||
2 I spread out my hands all day long
|
||||
to a rebellious people
|
||||
who walk in the path that is not good,
|
||||
following their own thoughts.
|
||||
|
||||
3. These people continually anger me
|
||||
3 These people continually anger me
|
||||
to my face,
|
||||
sacrificing in gardens,
|
||||
burning incense on bricks,
|
||||
|
||||
4. sitting among the graves,
|
||||
4 sitting among the graves,
|
||||
spending nights in secret places,
|
||||
eating the meat of pigs,
|
||||
and putting polluted broth in their bowls.
|
||||
|
||||
5. They say, 'Keep to yourself,
|
||||
don't come near me, for I am too holy for you!'
|
||||
5 They say, ‘Keep to yourself,
|
||||
don’t come near me, for I am too holy for you!’
|
||||
These practices are smoke in my nostrils,
|
||||
a fire that burns all day long.
|
||||
|
||||
6. Look, it is written in front of me:
|
||||
6 Look, it is written in front of me:
|
||||
I will not keep silent, but I will repay;
|
||||
I will repay them fully
|
||||
|
||||
7. for your iniquities and the iniquities
|
||||
of your ancestors together,"
|
||||
7 for your iniquities and the iniquities
|
||||
of your ancestors together,”
|
||||
says the Lord.
|
||||
"Because they burned incense on the mountains
|
||||
“Because they burned incense on the mountains
|
||||
and reproached me on the hills,
|
||||
I will reward them fully
|
||||
for their former deeds."
|
||||
|
||||
8. The Lord says this:
|
||||
"As the new wine is found in a bunch of grapes,
|
||||
and one says, 'Don't destroy it,
|
||||
for there's some good in it,'
|
||||
for their former deeds.”
|
||||
8 The Lord says this:
|
||||
“As the new wine is found in a bunch of grapes,
|
||||
and one says, ‘Don’t destroy it,
|
||||
for there’s some good in it,’
|
||||
so I will act because of my servants
|
||||
and not destroy them all.
|
||||
|
||||
9. I will produce descendants from Jacob,
|
||||
9 I will produce descendants from Jacob,
|
||||
and heirs to my mountains from Judah;
|
||||
my chosen ones will possess it,
|
||||
and my servants will dwell there.
|
||||
|
||||
10. Sharon will be a pasture for flocks,
|
||||
10 Sharon will be a pasture for flocks,
|
||||
and the Valley of Achor a place for herds to lie down,
|
||||
for my people who have sought me.
|
||||
|
||||
11. But you who abandon the Lord,
|
||||
11 But you who abandon the Lord,
|
||||
who forget my holy mountain,
|
||||
who prepare a table for Fortune
|
||||
and fill bowls of mixed wine for Destiny,
|
||||
|
||||
12. I will destine you for the sword,
|
||||
12 I will destine you for the sword,
|
||||
and all of you will kneel down to be slaughtered,
|
||||
because I called and you did not answer,
|
||||
I spoke and you did not hear;
|
||||
you did what was evil in my sight
|
||||
and chose what I did not delight in."
|
||||
|
||||
13. Therefore, this is what the Lord God says:
|
||||
"Look! My servants will eat,
|
||||
and chose what I did not delight in.”
|
||||
13 Therefore, this is what the Lord God says:
|
||||
“Look! My servants will eat,
|
||||
but you will be hungry.
|
||||
Look!
|
||||
My servants will drink,
|
||||
Look! My servants will drink,
|
||||
but you will be thirsty.
|
||||
Look!
|
||||
My servants will rejoice,
|
||||
Look! My servants will rejoice,
|
||||
but you will be put to shame.
|
||||
|
||||
14. Look! My servants will shout for joy from a glad heart,
|
||||
14 Look! My servants will shout for joy from a glad heart,
|
||||
but you will cry out from an anguished heart,
|
||||
and you will lament out of a broken spirit.
|
||||
|
||||
15. You will leave your name behind
|
||||
15 You will leave your name behind
|
||||
as a curse for my chosen ones,
|
||||
and the Lord God will kill you;
|
||||
but he will give his servants another name.
|
||||
|
||||
16. Whoever asks for a blessing in the land
|
||||
16 Whoever asks for a blessing in the land
|
||||
will ask for a blessing by the God of truth,
|
||||
and whoever swears in the land
|
||||
will swear by the God of truth.
|
||||
|
||||
For the former troubles will be forgotten
|
||||
and hidden from my sight.

20 In her, a nursing infant will no longer live
|
||||
only a few days,
|
||||
or an old man not live out his days.
|
||||
|
||||
Indeed, the one who dies at a hundred years old
|
||||
will be mourned as a young man,
|
||||
and the one who misses a hundred years
|
||||
will be considered cursed.
|
||||

but the serpent’s food will be dust!
|

They will not do what is evil or destroy
|
