Isaiah 66:2-4
English Standard Version
2 (A)All these things my hand has made,
and so all these things came to be,
declares the Lord.
(B)But this is the one to whom I will look:
he who is humble and contrite in spirit
and trembles at my word.
3 (C)“He who slaughters an ox is like one who kills a man;
he who sacrifices a lamb, like one who breaks a dog's neck;
he who presents a grain offering, like one who offers (D)pig's blood;
he who makes a memorial offering of frankincense, like one who blesses an idol.
(E)These have chosen their own ways,
and their soul delights in their abominations;
4 (F)I also will choose harsh treatment for them
and bring (G)their fears upon them,
(H)because when I called, no one answered,
when I spoke, they did not listen;
(I)but they did what was evil in my eyes
and chose that in which I did not delight.”
Isaiah 66:2-4
New International Version
2 Has not my hand made all these things,(A)
and so they came into being?”
declares the Lord.
“These are the ones I look on with favor:
those who are humble and contrite in spirit,(B)
and who tremble at my word.(C)
3 But whoever sacrifices a bull(D)
is like one who kills a person,
and whoever offers a lamb
is like one who breaks a dog’s neck;
whoever makes a grain offering
is like one who presents pig’s(E) blood,
and whoever burns memorial incense(F)
is like one who worships an idol.
They have chosen their own ways,(G)
and they delight in their abominations;(H)
4 so I also will choose harsh treatment for them
and will bring on them what they dread.(I)
For when I called, no one answered,(J)
when I spoke, no one listened.
They did evil(K) in my sight
and chose what displeases me.”(L)
