Isaiah 57:6-8
Legacy Standard Bible
6 Among the [a](A)smooth stones of the [b]ravine
Is your portion, [c]they are your lot;
Even to them you have (B)poured out a drink offering;
You have made a grain offering.
Shall I [d](C)relent concerning these things?
7 Upon a mountain (D)lofty and lifted up
You have (E)made your bed.
You also went up there to offer sacrifice.
8 Behind the door and the doorpost
You have set up your memorial;
Indeed, far removed from Me, you have (F)uncovered yourself,
And have gone up and made your bed wide,
And you have cut a covenant for yourself with them;
You have loved their [e]bed;
You have looked on their [f]manhood.
