Verse 12
Isaiah 65:12
Free Bible Version
12
I will make sure your destiny is to be killed by the sword. All of you will bow down to be slaughtered, because I called out to you but you didn't answer; I spoke to you, but you didn't listen. Instead you did what's evil in my sight, choosing to do what I hate.

I have numbered you for the sword, and all of you shall fall by the slaughter, because I called and you did not answer; I spoke and you did not hear; and you did evil in my sight and chose that in which I did not delight.
