- "I was sought by those who did not
ask for Me; (Rom. 9:24;
Rom. 10:20) I was
found by
those who did not seek Me. I said, 'Here I am, here I am,' to a
notion that was not called by My name. (Is. 63:19)
- I have stretched out My hands all
day long to a rebellious people, who walk in a way that is not good,
according to their own thoughts; (Ps. 36:4; Rom. 10:21;
Is.
42:24)
- A people who provoke Me to anger
continually to My face; who sacrifice in gardens, and burn incense on
altars of brick; (Deut. 32:21; Is. 1:29)
- Who sit among the graves, and spend
the night in the tombs; (Deut. 18:11) who eat swine's
flesh, (Is. 66:17)
and the broth of abominable things is in their vessels;
- Who say, 'Keep to yourself, do not
come near me, (Matt. 9:11) for I am holier than you!'
These are smoke in My nostrils, a fire that burns all the day.
- "Behold, it is written before
Me: (Deut. 32:34)
I will not keep silence, but will repay - -
even repay into their bosom - - (Ps. 50:3; Ps. 79:12)
- Your iniquities and the iniquities
of your fathers together," says the Lord, (Ex. 20:5) "who
have burned incense on the mountains and blasphemed Me on the
hills; (Ezek. 18:6; Ezek. 20:27-28) therefore I
will measure their former work into their bosom."
- Thus says the Lord:
"As the
new wine is found in the cluster, and one says, 'Do not destroy it, for
a blessing is in it,' so will I do for My servants' sake, (Joel 2:14) that I may not destroy
them all.
- I will bring forth descendants from
Jacob, and from Judah an heir of My mountains; My elect shall inherit
it, and My servants shall dwell there. (Is. 66:22; Matt. 24:22)

- Behold, My servants shall sing for
joy of heart, but you shall cry for sorrow of heart, and wail for grief
of spirit. (Ps. 109:28)
- You shall leave your name as a
curse to My chosen; for the Lord God will slay you, (Is.
65:9; Is. 66:22;
Jer. 29:22)
- So that he who blesses himself in
the earth shall bless himself in the God of truth; and he who swears in
the earth shall swear by the God of truth; because the former troubles
are forgotten, and because they are hidden from My eyes. (Job 11:16; Jer. 4:2;
Zeph. 1:5)
- "For behold, I create new heavens
and
a new earth; and the former shall not be remembered or come to
mind. (Job 14:12; Hebrews 12:27; Rev. 21:1)
- But be glad and rejoice forever in
what I create; for behold I create Jerusalem as a rejoicing, and her
people as joy.
