Isaiah 57:4-6
Amplified Bible
4
“Of whom do you make fun?
Against whom do you open wide your mouth
And stick out your tongue?
Are you not children of rebellion (sin),
Offspring of deceit,
5
Who inflame yourselves [with lust in pagan rites] among the oaks (terebinth trees),
Under every green and leafy tree,
Who slaughter the children [in sacrifice] in the ravines
Under the clefts of the rocks?
6
“Among the smooth stones of the ravine
Is your portion, they (the idols) are your lot;
Even to them you have poured out a drink offering,
You have offered a grain offering.
Should I be quiet concerning these things [leaving them unpunished—bearing them with patience]?
Isaiah 57:4-6
New International Version
4 Who are you mocking?
At whom do you sneer
and stick out your tongue?
Are you not a brood of rebels,(A)
the offspring of liars?
5 You burn with lust among the oaks(B)
and under every spreading tree;(C)
you sacrifice your children(D) in the ravines
and under the overhanging crags.
6 The idols(E) among the smooth stones of the ravines are your portion;
indeed, they are your lot.
Yes, to them you have poured out drink offerings(F)
and offered grain offerings.
In view of all this, should I relent?(G)
