Isaiah 17:7-9
New Catholic Bible
7 On that day,
men will look to their Creator,
and they will turn their eyes
to the Holy One of Israel.
8 They will not gaze upon the altars, their handiwork,
nor shall they regard what their fingers have made
the sacred poles and the altars of incense.
9 On that day their strong cities will be
like those abandoned by the Hivites and the Amorites
which they deserted because of the Israelites’ advance;
their cities will be left desolate.
Isaiah 17:7-9
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.
