Isaiah 57:8-10
English Standard Version Anglicised
8 Behind the door and the doorpost
you have set up your memorial;
for, deserting me, (A)you have uncovered your bed,
you have gone up to it,
(B)you have made it wide;
and you have made a covenant for yourself with them,
you have loved their bed,
you have looked on nakedness.[a]
9 You journeyed to the king with oil
and multiplied your perfumes;
(C)you sent your envoys far off,
and sent down even to Sheol.
10 You were wearied with the length of your way,
(D)but you did not say, “It is hopeless”;
you found new life for your strength,
and so you were not faint.[b]
