Isaiah 17:7-9
New Living Translation
7 Then at last the people will look to their Creator
and turn their eyes to the Holy One of Israel.
8 They will no longer look to their idols for help
or worship what their own hands have made.
They will never again bow down to their Asherah poles
or worship at the pagan shrines they have built.
9 Their largest cities will be like a deserted forest,
like the land the Hivites and Amorites abandoned[a]
when the Israelites came here so long ago.
It will be utterly desolate.
Footnotes
- 17:9 As in Greek version; Hebrew reads like places of the wood and the highest bough.
