Isaiah 65:2-4
International Standard Version
2 I held out my hands all day long
to a disobedient[a] people,
who walk in a way that isn’t good,
following their own inclinations—
3 a people who continually provoke me to my face;
they[b] keep sacrificing in gardens
and waving their hands[c] over stone[d] altars;
4 who sit among graves,
and spend the night in secret places;
who eat pigs’ meat,
with the broth[e] of detestable things in[f] their pots;

2 All day long I have held out my hands
to an obstinate people,(A)

and spend their nights keeping secret vigil;
who eat the flesh of pigs,(G)
and whose pots hold broth of impure meat;
