1. Those who before were not asking for me have sought me. Those who have not sought me have found me. I said, "Behold, it is I! Behold, it is I!" to a nation which was not invoking my name.
2. I have extended my hands all day long to an unbelieving people, who advance along a way that is not good, following their own thoughts,
3. to a people who provoke me to anger before my face continually, who immolate in the gardens, and who sacrifice upon the bricks.
4. They live in sepulchers, and they sleep in the shrines of idols. They eat the flesh of swine, and a profane elixir is in their vessels.
5. They say: "Depart from me! Do not approach me, for you are unclean!" Such as these will be the smoke in my fury, a fire burning all day long.
6. Behold, it has been written in my sight; I will not be silent. Instead, I will render retribution into their sinews.
