Isaiah 57:9-11
Amplified Bible
9
“You have gone to [a]the king [of a pagan land] with oil
And increased your [b]perfumes;
You have sent your messengers a great distance
And made them go down to Sheol (the realm of the dead).
10
“You were wearied by the length of your road,
Yet you did not say, ‘It is no use.’
You found [c]renewed strength,
Therefore you did not grow weak.
11
“About whom were you worried and fearful
That you lied and did not [d]remember Me,
Nor [e]give Me a thought?
Was I not silent even for a long time
And [as a result] you do not fear Me?
