Isaiah 65:1 - The Message
"Ive made myself available to those who havent bothered to ask.
Im here, ready to be found
by those who havent bothered to look.
I kept saying Im here, Im right here
to a nation that ignored me.
I reached out day after day
to a people who turned their backs on me,
People who make wrong turns,
who insist on doing things their own way.
They get on my nerves,
are rude to my face day after day,
Make up their own kitchen religion,
a potluck religious stew.
They spend the night in tombs
to get messages from the dead,
Eat forbidden foods
and drink a witchs brew of potions and charms.
They say, Keep your distance.
Dont touch me. Im holier than thou.
These people gag me.
I cant stand their stench.
Look at this! Their sins are all written out—
I have the list before me.
Im not putting up with this any longer.
Ill pay them the wages
They have coming for their sins.
And for the sins of their parents lumped in,
a bonus." God says so.
"Because theyve practiced their blasphemous worship,
mocking me at their hillside shrines,
Ill let loose the consequences
and pay them in full for their actions."
