Isaiah 65:8 CPDV

⁶  Behold, it has been written in my sight; I will not be silent. Instead, I will render retribution into their sinews.

⁷  Your iniquities are joined with the iniquities of your fathers, says the Lord. For they have sacrificed upon the mountains, and they have offended me upon the hills. And so, I will measure back to them, from their first work, into their sinews.

⁸  Thus says the Lord: In the same way as it is said about a grain found in a cluster, 'Do not destroy it, because it is a blessing,' so will I act for the sake of my servants, so that I may not destroy the whole.

⁹  And I will lead forth an offspring from Jacob, and a possessor of my mountains from Judah. And my elect shall inherit it, and my servants shall live there.

¹⁰  And the open plains will become sheepfolds for the flocks, and the valley of Achor will become a domicile for the herds, for my people who have sought me.
