Isaiah 65:12-14
International Standard Version
Isaiah 65:12-14
International Standard Version
12 I’ll consign[a] you to the sword,
and all of you will bend down for the slaughter—
because when I called, you didn’t answer,
when I spoke, you didn’t listen;
but you did what was evil in my sight,
and chose what I took no pleasure in.”
The Righteous and Wicked Contrasted
13 Therefore, this is what the Lord[b] says:
“See, my servants will eat,
but you’ll go hungry;
my servants will drink,
but you’ll go thirsty;
my servants will rejoice,
but you’ll be put to shame.
14 My servants will sing in gladness[c] of heart,
but you’ll cry for help[d] from anguish of heart,
and you’ll howl from brokenness of spirit.
