Isaiah 66

Treated in 28 passages across the library.

  • 66:2 My own hand made all these things, and that is how they all exist, declares the LORD. The one I will regard with favor is the lowly, the broken in spirit, who trembles at my word. 6
  • 66:13 Just as a mother comforts her own, so I myself will comfort you; in Jerusalem you will be comforted. 6
  • 66:1 The LORD says this: The heavens are my throne, and the earth is a stool for my feet. What kind of house would you build for me, and what kind of place could be my resting place? 3
  • 66:3 Slaughtering an ox is no different from killing a person; sacrificing a lamb, from breaking a dog's neck; presenting a grain offering, from offering pig's blood; burning frankincense as a memorial, from blessing an idol. These people have chosen their own ways, and their hearts delight in their loathsome things. 2
  • 66:5 Hear the word of the LORD, you who tremble at his word: Your own kin, who hate you and cast you out because of my name, have said, "Let the LORD show his glory, and we will see how glad you are!" But it is they who will be put to shame. 2
  • 66:15 Look! the LORD comes in fire, and his chariots sweep in like a storm, to give vent to his anger in fury and his rebuke in tongues of fire. 2
  • 66:23 Month after month at the new moon, and week after week on the Sabbath, all humanity will come to bow in worship before me, says the LORD. 2
  • 66:24 Then they will go out and gaze on the corpses of the people who rebelled against me. For their worm will not die, nor will their fire be put out, and they will be a horror to every living being. 2
  • 66:6 Hear that roar from the city! Hear the noise from the temple! It is the sound of the LORD paying back his enemies what they have earned. 1
  • 66:8 Who ever heard of anything like this? Who has seen the like? Is a country brought to birth in a single day, or a nation born in one moment? Yet Zion had barely begun her labor when she bore her children. 1
  • 66:12 For the LORD says this: Look, I will make peace flow to her like a river, and the wealth of the nations like a stream in flood. You will feed at her breast; she will carry you at her side and play with you on her knees. 1
  • 66:18 I, for my part, know their deeds and their schemes. The time is coming for gathering every nation and language, and they will come and look on my glory. 1
  • 66:22 The new heavens and the new earth that I am about to make will stand firm in my presence, declares the LORD; in the same way your descendants and your name will stand firm. 1
