Isaiah 65:11-12
Expanded Bible
11 “But as for you who ·left [abandoned; forsook] the Lord,
who forgot about my holy mountain,
who ·worship the god Luck [L spread a table for Fortune/Luck; C Hebrew Gad, a pagan god],
·who hold religious feasts for the god Fate [L fill bowls of mixed wine for Fate; C Hebrew Meni, a pagan god],
12 I ·decide your fate, and I will punish you with my sword [L destine/number you for the sword].
You will all ·be killed [fall in the slaughter; or bow to the executioner],
because I called you, but you refused to answer.
I spoke to you, but you wouldn’t listen.
You did ·the things I said were evil [L evil before my eyes]
and chose to do things ·that displease me [L I did not delight in].”
Isaiah 65:11-12
New American Standard Bible
11 But as for you who (A)abandon the Lord,
Who forget My (B)holy mountain,
Who set a table for [a]Fortune,
And fill a jug of mixed wine for [b]Destiny,
12 I will destine you for the (C)sword,
And all of you will bow down to the (D)slaughter.
Because I called, but you (E)did not answer;
I spoke, but you did not listen.
Instead, you did evil in My sight
And chose that in which I did not delight.”
