Isaiah 66:5-7

EasyEnglish Bible

⁵ Hear this message from the Lord, you people who respect his teaching. Some of your own people hate you. They throw you out, because you are faithful to me. They laugh at you and they say, ‘Let the Lord show how great he is! We want to see him make you happy!’

But it is those people who will be ashamed.

⁶ Listen to the loud noise that is coming from the city! It is a noise that comes from the temple. The Lord is punishing his enemies as they deserve. That is what is making the noise!

⁷ What is happening? Zion is giving birth to a son before she has her birth pains!
