Isaiah 65:2 In-Context

1 I was ready to be sought by those who did not ask for me; I was ready to be 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 the day to a rebellious people, who walk in a way that is not good, following their own devices;

3 a people who provoke me to my face continually, sacrificing in gardens and making offerings on bricks;

4 who sit in tombs, and spend the night in secret places; who eat pig’s flesh, and broth of tainted meat is in their vessels;

5 who say, “Keep to yourself, do not come near me, for I am too holy for you. ” These are a smoke in my nostrils, a fire that burns all the day.
