Isaiah 57:8-10
Common English Bible
8 Behind the door and the doorpost
you placed your symbols.
You abandoned me and lay down,
making room in your bed
and making deals for yourself with them.[a]
You loved their bed;
you saw their nakedness.
9 You went down to Molech[b] with oil,
and you slathered on your ointments;
you sent your messengers far away,
sent them down to the underworld.[c]
10 Worn out by all your efforts,
yet you wouldn’t say, “This is useless.”
You found new strength;
therefore, you weren’t tired.
