Isaiah 65:6-12 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

6. It is written before Me:I will not keep silent, but I will repay; I will repay them fully

7. for your iniquities and the iniquities of your fathers together,”says the Lord.“Because they burned incense on the mountainsand reproached Me on the hills, I will reward them fully for their former deeds.”

8. The Lord says this:As the new wine is found in a bunch of grapes,and one says, ‘Don’t destroy it,for there’s some good in it,’so I will act because of My servantsand not destroy them all.

9. I will produce descendants from Jacob, and heirs to My mountains from Judah;My chosen ones will possess it,and My servants will dwell there.

10. Sharon will be a pasture for flocks, and the Valley of Achor a place for cattle to lie down, for My people who have sought Me.

11. But you who abandon the Lord,who forget My holy mountain,who prepare a table for Fortuneand fill bowls of mixed wine for Destiny,

12. I will destine you for the sword,and all of you will kneel down to be slaughtered,because I called and you did not answer,I spoke and you did not hear;you did what was evil in My sightand chose what I did not delight in.
