Isaiah 57:3-5
International Standard Version
3 “But as for you, come here,
you children of a sorceress,
you offspring of adulterers and prostitutes![a]
4 Whom are you mocking?
And[b] against whom do you make a wide mouth
and stick out your tongue?
Are you not children of transgression,
the offspring of lies,
5 you who burn with lust among the oaks,
under every spreading tree,
who slaughter your children in the ravines,
under the clefts of the rocks?
