← Isaiah 57:3	Isaiah 57:4 (KJV)	Isaiah 57:5 →
But draw near hither, ye sons of the sorceress, the seed of the adulterer and the whore.	Against whom do ye sport yourselves? against whom make ye a wide mouth, [and] draw out the tongue? [are] ye not children of transgression, a seed of falsehood,	Enflaming yourselves with idols under every green tree, slaying the children in the valleys under the clifts of the rocks?
