Verse 6
God would intervene with a word announcing and effecting judgment. The superficial worshippers had called for God to act (Isaiah 66:5), and He would. They had called on Him to give them the comfort they thought He owed them (cf. Isaiah 57:18). He would give them what they deserved, but it would be judgment rather than comfort. These were enemies of His, not His true worshippers.
