Isaiah 66:4-6
International Standard Version
4 Therefore[a] I, too, will choose harsh treatment for them,
and will bring upon them what they dread.
For when I called, no[b] one answered;
when I spoke, they didn’t listen;
but they did what I consider to be evil,
and chose what doesn’t please me.”
The Lord Vindicates Zion
5 “Hear this message from the Lord,
you who tremble at his words:[c]
“Your own brothers who hate you
and exclude you because of my name
have said: ‘Let the Lord be glorified;
he will see[d] your joy,’
yet it is they who will be put to shame.
6 “Listen to that uproar in[e] the city!
Listen to that noise from the Temple!
It is the sound of the Lord
paying back retribution to his enemies!
