The LORD says:
“Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool.
What kind of house will you build to me?
Where will I rest?
The LORD says:
“Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool.
What kind of house will you build to me?
Where will I rest?
Isaiah 66:1–4
The LORD says:
“Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool.
What kind of house will you build to me?
Where will I rest?
For my hand has made all these things,
and so all these things came to be,” says the LORD:
“but I will look to this man,
even to he who is poor and of a contrite spirit,
and who trembles at my word.
He who kills an ox is as he who kills a man;
he who sacrifices a lamb, as he who breaks a dog’s neck;
he who offers an offering, as he who offers pig’s blood;
he who burns frankincense, as he who blesses an idol.
Yes, they have chosen their own ways,
and their soul delights in their abominations.
I 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.”
