1I am inquired of by those who didn`t ask; I am found by those who didn`t seek me: I said, See me, see me, to a nation that was not called by my name.
2I have spread out my hands all the day to a rebellious people, who walk in a way that is not good, after their own thoughts;
3a people who provoke me to my face continually, sacrificing in gardens, and burning incense on bricks;
4who sit among the graves, and lodge in the secret places; who eat pig`s flesh, and broth of abominable things is in their vessels;
5who say, Stand by yourself, don`t come near to me, for I am holier than you. These are a smoke in my nose, a fire that burns all the day.
6Behold, it is written before me: I will not keep silence, but will recompense, yes, I will recompense into their bosom,
7your own iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together, says Yahweh, who have burned incense on the mountains, and blasphemed me on the hills; therefore will I first measure their work into their bosom.
