Isaiah 66:16-18
New Century Version
16 The Lord will judge the people with fire,
and he will destroy many people with his sword;
he will kill many people.
17 “These people make themselves holy and pure to go to worship their gods in their gardens. Following each other into their special gardens, they eat the meat of pigs and rats and other hateful things. But they will all be destroyed together,” says the Lord.
18 “I know they have evil thoughts and do evil things, so I am coming to punish them. I will gather all nations and all people, and they will come together and see my glory.
