Darum will ich auch erwählen, das sie verspotten; und was sie scheuen, will ich über sie kommen lassen, darum daß ich rief, und niemand antwortete, daß ich redete, und sie höreten nicht, und taten, was mir übel gefiel, und erwähleten, das mir nicht gefiel.
Was bedeutet das?
In this verse from Isaiah, God speaks and expresses His disappointment with people who ignored Him and chose their own delusions and fears instead of listening to Him. God decides to bring upon them the consequences of their choices.
Für Kinder erklärt
Imagine you invite your friend to play but they ignore you and play with toys they made up. This verse is like God saying, 'Since you chose to play with your own make-believe games instead of playing with me, I'll let you deal with the problems that come from those games.'
Historischer Hintergrund
Isaiah, a prophet, wrote this verse around 700 BCE to the people of Israel. He spoke to them during a time of societal decline, reminding them of God's calls and their lack of response.
