In context

3But the transgressor that sacrifices a calf to me, is as he that kills a dog; and he that offers fine flour, as one that offers swine’s blood; he that gives frankincense for a memorial, is as a blasphemer. Yet they have chosen their own ways, and their soul has delighted in their abominations.

4I also will choose their mockeries, and will recompense their sins upon them; because I called them, and they did not hearken to me; I spoke, and they heard not: and they did evil before me, and chose the things wherein I delighted not.

— Isaiah 66:5 —

6A voice of a cry from the city, a voice from the temple, a voice of the Lord rendering recompense to his adversaries.

7Before she that travailed brought forth, before the travail pain came on, she escaped it and brought forth a male.
