Isaiah 21:8

(See Gill on 1 Chronicles 21:1).

Isaiah 65:2 In-Context

1 "I was sought by those who did not ask; I was found by those who did not seek Me. I said: Here I am, here I am, to a nation that was not called by My name.

2 I spread out My hands all day long to a rebellious people who walk in the wrong path, following their own thoughts.

3 These people continually provoke Me to My face, sacrificing in gardens, burning incense on bricks,

4 sitting among the graves, spending nights in secret places, eating swine's flesh, and putting polluted broth in their bowls.

5 They say: Keep to yourself, don't come near me, for I am too holy for you! These practices are smoke in My nostrils, a fire that burns all day long.
