Isaiah 57:3-9 But draw ye near hither, sons that are transgressors, ye seed of adulterers and a whore.

Ottley⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ But draw ye near hither, sons that are transgressors, ye seed of adulterers and a whore. ⁴ Wherein do ye take delight? and against whom open ye your mouth? and against whom do ye drop out your tongue? are ye not children of perdition, a transgressing seed? ⁵ Ye, that call upon your idols under leafy trees, that slay your children in the valleys amid the rocks! ⁶ That is your portion, this is your lot: and for those thou didst pour out drink-offerings, and to those thou didst bring sacrifices: shall I not then be wroth for this? ⁷ Upon a mountain high and lofty, there was thy couch, and there broughtest thou up sacrifices. ⁸ And behind the posts of thy door didst thou set thy memorials; thou thoughtest, that if thou shouldst revolt from me, thou wouldst gain advantage; thou lovedst them that lay with thee, ⁹ And didst multiply thine adultery with them, and madest many them that were far off from thee, and didst send envoys beyond thy borders, and turnedst away, and wert abased even to hell.
