Isaiah 57:3-8
New International Version
3 “But you—come here, you children of a sorceress,(A)
you offspring of adulterers(B) and prostitutes!(C)
4 Who are you mocking?
At whom do you sneer
and stick out your tongue?
Are you not a brood of rebels,(D)
the offspring of liars?
5 You burn with lust among the oaks(E)
and under every spreading tree;(F)
you sacrifice your children(G) in the ravines
and under the overhanging crags.
6 The idols(H) among the smooth stones of the ravines are your portion;
indeed, they are your lot.
Yes, to them you have poured out drink offerings(I)
and offered grain offerings.
In view of all this, should I relent?(J)
7 You have made your bed on a high and lofty hill;(K)
there you went up to offer your sacrifices.(L)
8 Behind your doors and your doorposts
you have put your pagan symbols.
Forsaking me, you uncovered your bed,
you climbed into it and opened it wide;
you made a pact with those whose beds you love,(M)
and you looked with lust on their naked bodies.(N)
