Isaiah 57:6-10

6 Among the smooth stones of ^jthe valley is your portion;
they, they, are your lot;
to them you have poured out a drink offering,
you have brought a grain offering.
Shall I relent for these things?
7 ^kOn a high and lofty mountain
you have set your bed,
and there you went up to offer sacrifice.
8 Behind the door and the doorpost
you have set up your memorial;
for, deserting me, ^lyou have uncovered your bed,
you have gone up to it,
^myou have made it wide;
and you have made a covenant for yourself with them,
you have loved their bed,
you have looked on nakedness. ^{▼▼Or on a monument (see 56:5); Hebrew on a hand}
9 You journeyed to the king with oil
and multiplied your perfumes;
^oyou sent your envoys far off,
and sent down even to Sheol.
10 You were wearied with the length of your way,
^pbut you did not say, “It is hopeless”;
you found new life for your strength,
and so you were not faint. ^{▼▼Hebrew and so you were not sick}
