Isaiah 65:11-12
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
11 But you who forsake the Lord,
who forget my holy mountain,
who set a table for Fortune
and fill cups of mixed wine for Destiny,(A)
12 I will destine you to the sword,
and all of you shall bow down to the slaughter;
because, when I called, you did not answer,
when I spoke, you did not listen,
but you did what was evil in my sight
and chose what I did not delight in.(B)
Isaiah 65:11-12
International Standard Version
11 But as for you who forsake the Lord,
who forget my holy mountain,
who spread a table for Fortune[a]
and[b] fill drink offerings[c] for Destiny,[d]
12 I’ll consign[e] you to the sword,
and all of you will bend down for the slaughter—
because when I called, you didn’t answer,
when I spoke, you didn’t listen;
but you did what was evil in my sight,
and chose what I took no pleasure in.”
