Isaiah 57:8-12 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

8. You have hidden your idolsbehind your doors and doorposts.You have left me, and you have uncovered yourself.You have pulled back the covers and climbed into bed.You have made an agreement withthe ones whose beds you love.And you have looked at their nakedness.

9. You use your oils and perfumesto look nice for Molech.You have sent your messengers to faraway lands.You even tried to send them to where the dead are.

10. You have worked hard to do these things.But you never gave up.You found new strength.So you did not quit.

11. “Whom were you so afraid ofthat you lied to me?You have not remembered meor even thought about me.I have been quiet for a long time.Is that why you are not afraid of me?

12. I will tell about your ‘goodness’ and what you do.And those things will do you no good.
