Isaiah 66:6

Isaiah 66:6 in context

1. 4I also will choose their delusions,
   and will bring their fears on them;
   because when I called, no one answered;
   when I spoke, they didn’t listen;
   but they did that which was evil in my eyes,
   and chose that in which I didn’t delight.”
2. 5Hear Yahweh’s word,
   you who tremble at his word:
   “Your brothers who hate you,
   who cast you out for my name’s sake, have said,
   ‘Let Yahweh be glorified,
   that we may see your joy;’
   but it is those who shall be disappointed.
3. 6A voice of tumult from the city,
   a voice from the temple,
   a voice of Yahweh that repays his enemies what they deserve.
4. 7“Before she travailed, she gave birth.
   Before her pain came, she delivered a son.
5. 8Who has heard of such a thing?
   Who has seen such things?
   Shall a land be born in one day?
   Shall a nation be born at once?
   For as soon as Zion travailed,
   she gave birth to her children.
