Isaiah 65:1–2

I was ready to be sought by those who did not ask for me;

I was ready to be found by those who did not seek me.

I said, “Here I am, here I am,”

to a nation that was not called by my name.

I spread out my hands all the day

to a rebellious people,

who walk in a way that is not good,

following their own devices;

“I was sought by those who did not ask;

I was 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.

I spread out my hands all day long

to a rebellious people

who walk in the path that is not good,

following their own thoughts.

The Lord says,

“I was ready to respond, but no one asked for help.

I was ready to be found, but no one was looking for me.

I said, ‘Here I am, here I am!’

to a nation that did not call on my name.

All day long I opened my arms to a rebellious people.

But they follow their own evil paths

and their own crooked schemes.

“I let myself be sought by those who did not ask;

I let myself 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;

I spread out my hands all day to a stubborn people,

those who walk after their thoughts in the way that is not good,

I am sought of them that asked not for me;

I am found of them that sought me not:

I said, Behold me, behold me,

Unto a nation that was not called by my name.

I have spread out my hands all the day unto a rebellious people,

Which walketh in a way that was not good, after their own thoughts;
