rsv Isaiah:57:5-10 SEEK
Seeker Overlay ON
*
you who burn with lust among the oaks ,
under every green tree ;
who slay your children in the valleys ,
under the clefts of the rocks ?
*
Among the smooth stones of the valley is your portion ;
they ,
they ,
are your lot ;
to them you have poured out a drink offering ,
you have brought a cereal offering .
Shall I be appeased for these things ?
*
Upon a high and lofty mountain you have set your bed ,
and thither you went up to offer sacrifice .
*
Behind the door and the doorpost you have set up your symbol ;
for ,
deserting me ,
you have uncovered your bed ,
you have gone up to it ,
you have made it wide ;
and you have made a bargain for yourself with them ,
you have loved their bed ,
you have looked on nakedness .
*
You journeyed to Molech with oil and multiplied your perfumes ;
you sent your envoys far off ,
and sent down even to Sheol .
*
You were wearied with the length of your way ,
but you did not say , "
It is hopeless ";
you found new life for your strength ,
and so you were not faint .
