Isaiah 65:3 in context

  1. 1“I am inquired of by those who didn’t ask.
    I am found by those who didn’t seek me.
    I said, ‘See me, see me,’ to a nation that was not called by my name.
  2. 2I have spread out my hands all day to a rebellious people,
    who walk in a way that is not good,
    after their own thoughts;
  3. 3a people who provoke me to my face continually,
    sacrificing in gardens,
    and burning incense on bricks;
  4. 4who sit among the graves,
    and spend nights in secret places;
    who eat pig’s meat,
    and broth of abominable things is in their vessels;
  5. 5who say, ‘Stay by yourself,
    don’t come near to me,
    for I am holier than you.’
    These are smoke in my nose,
    a fire that burns all day.
