Isaiah 57:8-10
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
8 Behind the door and the doorpost
you have set up your symbol;
for, in deserting me,[a] you have uncovered your bed,
you have gone up to it,
you have made it wide;
and you have made a bargain for yourself with them,
you have loved their bed,
you have gazed on their nakedness.[b]
9 You journeyed to Molech[c] with oil,
and multiplied your perfumes;
you sent your envoys far away,
and sent down even to Sheol.
10 You grew weary from your many wanderings,
but you did not say, ‘It is useless.’
You found your desire rekindled,
and so you did not weaken.
