Isaiah 66:4-6
EasyEnglish Bible
4 So I will cause great trouble to come to them.
It will be the trouble that they are so afraid of.
When I called out to them,
nobody answered me.
When I spoke to them,
nobody listened.
They did evil things against me.
They chose to do things that I would hate.’
5 Hear this message from the Lord, you people who respect his teaching. Some of your own people hate you. They throw you out, because you are faithful to me. They laugh at you and they say, ‘Let the Lord show how great he is! We want to see him make you happy!’
But it is those people who will be ashamed.
6 Listen to the loud noise that is coming from the city! It is a noise that comes from the temple. The Lord is punishing his enemies as they deserve. That is what is making the noise!

Isaiah 66:4-6
New International Version
4 so I also will choose harsh treatment for them
and will bring on them what they dread.(A)
For when I called, no one answered,(B)
when I spoke, no one listened.
They did evil(C) in my sight
and chose what displeases me.”(D)
5 Hear the word of the Lord,
you who tremble at his word:(E)
“Your own people who hate(F) you,
and exclude you because of my name, have said,
‘Let the Lord be glorified,
that we may see your joy!’
Yet they will be put to shame.(G)
6 Hear that uproar from the city,
hear that noise from the temple!
It is the sound(H) of the Lord
repaying(I) his enemies all they deserve.
