Isaiah 17:7-9
Legacy Standard Bible
7 In that day man will (A)have regard for his Maker
And his eyes will look to the Holy One of Israel.
8 He will not have regard for the (B)altars, the work of his hands,
Nor will he look to that which his (C)fingers have made,
Even the [a](D)Asherim and [b]incense stands.
9 In that day [c]their strong cities will be like [d]forsaken places in the forest,
Or like [e]branches which they forsook before the sons of Israel;
And [f]the land will be a desolation.

New International Version
7 In that day(A) people will look(B) to their Maker(C)
and turn their eyes to the Holy One(D) of Israel.
8 They will not look to the altars,(E)
the work of their hands,(F)
and they will have no regard for the Asherah poles[a](G)
and the incense altars their fingers(H) have made.
9 In that day their strong cities, which they left because of the Israelites, will be like places abandoned to thickets and undergrowth.(I) And all will be desolation.
