Isaiah 57:9-11
Christian Standard Bible
9 You went to the king with oil
and multiplied your perfumes;
you sent your envoys far away(A)
and sent them down even to Sheol.
10 You became weary on your many journeys,
but you did not say, “It’s hopeless!” (B)
You found a renewal of your strength;[a]
therefore you did not grow weak.
11 Who was it you dreaded and feared,
so that you lied and didn’t remember me
or take it to heart?
I have kept silent for a long time, haven’t I?[b](C)
So you do not fear me.
Isaiah 57:9-11
New International Version
9 You went to Molek[a](A) with olive oil
and increased your perfumes.(B)
You sent your ambassadors[b](C) far away;
you descended to the very realm of the dead!(D)
10 You wearied(E) yourself by such going about,
but you would not say, ‘It is hopeless.’(F)
You found renewal of your strength,(G)
and so you did not faint.
