Isaiah 65:4-13 World Messianic Bible British Edition (WMBBE)

4. who sit amongst the graves,and spend nights in secret places;who eat pig’s meat,and broth of abominable things is in their vessels;

5. who say, ‘Stay by yourself,don’t come near to me,for I am holier than you.’These are smoke in my nose,a fire that burns all day.

6. “Behold, it is written before me:I will not keep silence,but will repay,yes, I will repay into their bosom,

7. your own iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together”, says the Lord,“who have burnt incense on the mountains,and blasphemed me on the hills.Therefore I will first measure their work into their bosom.”

8. the Lord says,“As the new wine is found in the cluster,and one says, ‘Don’t destroy it, for a blessing is in it:’so I will do for my servants’ sake,that I may not destroy them all.

9. I will bring offspring out of Jacob,and out of Judah an inheritor of my mountains.My chosen will inherit it,and my servants will dwell there.

10. Sharon will be a fold of flocks,and the valley of Achor a place for herds to lie down in,for my people who have sought me.

11. “But you who forsake the Lord,who forget my holy mountain,who prepare a table for Fortune,and who fill up mixed wine to Destiny;

12. I will destine you to the sword,and you will all bow down to the slaughter;because when I called, you didn’t answer.When I spoke, you didn’t listen;but you did that which was evil in my eyes,and chose that in which I didn’t delight.”

13. Therefore thus says the Lord GOD,“Behold, my servants will eat,but you will be hungry;behold, my servants will drink,but you will be thirsty.Behold, my servants will rejoice,but you will be disappointed;
