Isaiah

¹I AM inquired of by them that asked not for me; I am found of them that sought me not: I said, Behold me, behold me, unto a nation that was not called by my name. ²I have spread out my hands all the day unto a rebellious people, which walketh in a way that is not good, after their own thoughts; ³a people that provoketh me to my face continually, sacrificing in gardens, and burning incense upon bricks; ⁴which sit among the graves, and lodge in the secret places; which eat swine's flesh, and broth of abominable things is in their vessels; ⁵which say, Stand by thyself, come not near to me, for I am holier than thou: these are a smoke in my nose, a fire that burneth all the day. ⁶Behold, it is written before me: I will not keep silence, but will recompense, yea, I will recompense into their bosom,
