Isaiah 17:6-8
Common English Bible
6 Only remaining bits are left,
like an olive tree that has been shaken:
two or three olives on the highest branch;
four or five on a fruitful twig,
says the Lord God of Israel.
7 On that day, people will have regard for their maker,
and their eyes will look to the holy one of Israel.
8 They will have no regard for altars,
the work of their hands,
or look to what their fingers made:
sacred poles[a] and incense stands.
