Isaiah 65:1-5 ▼

1 They seeke me, that hitherto haue not asked for me, they finde me, that hitherto haue not sought me: I haue saide, I am here, I am here, I am founde of a people that neuer called vpon my name.

2 For thus long haue I euer holden out mine handes to an vnfaythfull people that go not the right way, but after their owne imagination:

3 To a people that is euer defiyng me to my face, they make their oblations in gardens, and their smoke vpon aulters of bricke.

4 They lurke among the groues, and lye in the dennes all night: they eate swines fleshe, and vncleane broth is in their vessels.

5 If thou commest nye them, they say, touche me not, for I am holyer then thou: All these men when I am angry, shalbe turned to smoke and fire that shall burne for euer.
