Isaiah 66:5-7

Good News Translation

⁵ Listen to what the Lord says, you that fear him and obey him: “Because you are faithful to me, some of your own people hate you and will have nothing to do with you. They mock you and say, ‘Let the Lord show his greatness and save you, so that we may see you rejoice.’ But they themselves will be disgraced! ⁶ Listen!

^7 (A)“My holy city is like a woman who suddenly gives birth to a child without ever going into labor.
