Isaiah 66:1–4
aThe heaven is my throne, and bthe earth is my footstool:
Where is the house that ye build unto me?
And where is the place of my rest?
2 For call those things hath mine hand made,
And all those things have been, saith the Lord:
But dto this man will I look,
Even to him that is poor and eof a contrite spirit,
And ftrembleth at my word.
3 gHe that killeth an ox is as if he slew a man;
He that sacrificeth a ||lamb, as if hhe cut off ia dog’s neck;
He that offereth an oblation, kas if he offered swine’s blood;
He that †burneth incense, as if he blessed an idol.
Yea, they have chosen ltheir own ways,
And their soul delighteth in their abominations.
4 I also will choose their ||mdelusions,
And will bring their fears upon them;
nBecause when I called, none did answer;
nWhen I spake, they did not hear:
nBut they did evil before mine eyes,
nAnd chose that in which I delighted not.
