Isaiah 65:1-7

International Standard Version

65 “I let myself be sought by those who didn’t ask for me;^[a]
    I let myself be found by those who didn’t seek me.
I said, ‘Here I am! Here I am!’
    to a nation that didn’t call on my name.
² I held out my hands all day long
    to a disobedient^[b] people,
who walk in a way that isn’t good,
    following their own inclinations—
³ a people who continually provoke me to my face;
    they^[c] keep sacrificing in gardens
        and waving their hands^[d] over stone^[e] altars;
⁴ who sit among graves,
    and spend the night in secret places;
who eat pigs’ meat,
    with the broth^[f] of detestable things in^[g] their pots;
⁵ who say, ‘Keep to yourself!’
    ‘Don’t touch^[h] me!’ and ‘I am^[i] too holy for you!’
