New Testament

Isaiah 57:9-13 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

9. You smear on olive oiland all kinds of perfumeto worship the god Molech.You even seek advicefrom spirits of the dead.

10. Though you tired yourself outby running after idols,you refused to stop.Your desires were so strongthat they kept you going.

11. Did you forget about meand become unfaithfulbecause you were more afraidof someone else?Have I been silent so longthat you no longer fear me?

12. You think you're so good,but I'll point out the truth.

13. Ask your idols to save youwhen you are in trouble.Be careful though—it takes only a faint breathto blow them over.But if you come to mefor protection,this land and my holy mountainwill always belong to you.
