2 I have spread out My hands all the day Unto a rebellious people, That walk in a way that is not good, After their own thoughts; 3 A people that provoke Me To My face continually, That sacrifice in gardens, And burn incense upon bricks; 4 That sit among the graves, And lodge in the vaults; That eat swine's flesh, And broth of abominable things is in their vessels; 5 That say: 'Stand by thyself, Come not near to me, for I am holier than thou'; These are a smoke in My nose, A fire that burneth all the day. Isaiah 65:2-5, JPS Tanakh 1917. Public domain.
