65 I was ready to be sought out by those who did not ask,
    to be found by those who did not seek me.
I said, “Here I am, here I am,”
    to a nation that did not call on my name.^(A)
2 I held out my hands all day long
    to a rebellious people,
who walk in a way that is not good,
    following their own devices;^(B)
3 a people who provoke me
    to my face continually,
sacrificing in gardens
    and offering incense on bricks;^(C)
4 who sit inside tombs
    and spend the night in secret places;
who eat the flesh of pigs,
    with broth of abominable things in their vessels;^(D)
5 who say, “Keep to yourself;
    do not come near me, for I am too holy for you.”
These are a smoke in my nostrils,
    a fire that burns all day long.^(E)
6 See, it is written before me:
    I will not keep silent, but I will repay;
I will indeed repay into their laps^(F)
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.^(G)
