Isaiah 65:12-16

12 I will destine you to the sword,
and all of you shall bow down to the slaughter,
^hbecause, when I called, you did not answer;
when I spoke, you did not listen,
ⁱbut you did what was evil in my eyes
and chose what I did not delight in.”
13 Therefore thus says the Lord God:
“Behold, ^jmy servants shall eat,
but you shall be hungry;
behold, my servants shall drink,
but you shall be thirsty;
behold, my servants shall rejoice,
but you shall be put to shame;
14 behold, ^kmy servants shall sing for gladness of heart,
but you shall cry out for pain of heart
and shall wail for breaking of spirit.
15 You shall leave your name to ^lmy chosen ^mfor a curse,
and the Lord God will put you to death,
but his servants ⁿhe will call by another name,
16 so that he who ^oblesses himself in the land
shall bless himself by ^pthe God of truth,
and he who takes an oath in the land
shall swear by ^qthe God of truth;
^rbecause the former troubles are forgotten
and are hidden from my eyes.

Isaiah 66:5

5 Hear the word of the Lord,

but it is they who shall be put to shame.
