Context of Isaiah 1:14

12When you come to appear before Me, Who requires this of you, this trampling of My [temple] courts [by your sinful feet]? 13Do not bring worthless offerings again, [Your] incense is repulsive to Me; [Your] New Moon and Sabbath [observances], the calling of assemblies— I cannot endure wickedness [your sin, your injustice, your wrongdoing] and [the squalor of] the festive assembly. I hate [the hypocrisy of] your New Moon festivals and your appointed feasts. They have become a burden to Me; I am weary of bearing them. 15So when you spread out your hands [in prayer, pleading for My help], I will hide My eyes from you; Yes, even though you offer many prayers, I will not be listening. Your hands are full of blood! 16“Wash yourselves, make yourselves clean; Get your evil deeds out of My sight. Stop doing evil,
