Isaiah 66:4-6
Easy-to-Read Version
Isaiah 66:4-6
Easy-to-Read Version
4 So I decided to use their own tricks.
I will punish them using what they are most afraid of.
I will do this because I called to them,
but they did not answer.
I spoke to them,
but they did not listen.
They did what I said is evil.
They chose to do what I did not like.”
5 You who obey the Lord’s commands,
listen to what he says:
“Your brothers hated you.
They turned against you because you followed me.
Your brothers said, ‘When the Lord shows his glory,
then we will rejoice with you.’
But they will be punished.”
Punishment and a New Nation
6 Listen! There is a loud noise coming from the city and from the Temple. It is the Lord punishing his enemies. He is giving them the punishment they deserve.

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.

Isaiah 66:4-6
King James Version
4 I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spake, they did not hear: but they did evil before mine eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not.
5 Hear the word of the Lord, ye that tremble at his word; Your brethren that hated you, that cast you out for my name's sake, said, Let the Lord be glorified: but he shall appear to your joy, and they shall be ashamed.
6 A voice of noise from the city, a voice from the temple, a voice of the Lord that rendereth recompence to his enemies.
