Isaiah 65:6-8

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

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.

⁸ Thus saith the Lord: As if a grain be found in a cluster, and it be said: Destroy it not, because it is a blessing: so will I do for the sake of my servants, that I may not destroy the whole.
