Isaiah

Isaiah 65:1–2

1“I revealed Myself to those who did not ask for Me;

I was found by those who did not seek Me.a

To a nation that did not call My name,

I said, ‘Here I am! Here I am!’

2All day long I have held out My hands

to an obstinate peopleb

who walk in the wrong path,

who follow their own imaginations,
