Isaiah 65:6-9
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
6 See, it is written before me:
I will not keep silent, but I will repay;
I will indeed repay into their laps(A)
7 their[a] iniquities and their[b] ancestors’ iniquities together,
says the Lord;
because they offered incense on the mountains
and reviled me on the hills,
I will measure into their laps
full payment for their actions.(B)
8 Thus says the Lord:
As the wine is found in the cluster,
and they say, “Do not destroy it,
for there is a blessing in it,”
so I will do for my servants’ sake
and not destroy them all.
9 I will bring forth descendants from Jacob
and from Judah inheritors of my mountains;
my chosen shall inherit it,
and my servants shall settle there.(C)
Isaiah 65:6-9
New International Version
6 “See, it stands written before me:
I will not keep silent(A) but will pay back(B) in full;

says the Lord.
“Because they burned sacrifices on the mountains
and defied me on the hills,(F)
I will measure into their laps
the full payment(G) for their former deeds.”
8 This is what the Lord says:
“As when juice is still found in a cluster of grapes(H)
and people say, ‘Don’t destroy it,
there is still a blessing in it,’
so will I do in behalf of my servants;(I)
I will not destroy them all.
9 I will bring forth descendants(J) from Jacob,
and from Judah those who will possess(K) my mountains;
my chosen(L) people will inherit them,
and there will my servants live.(M)
