Isaiah 1:10-16

10Hear the word of the Lord, you rulers of Sodom! Listen to the instruction of our God, you people of Gomorrah!

11“What are all your sacrifices to me?” asks the Lord. “I have had enough of burnt offerings and rams and the fat of well-fed cattle; I have no desire for the blood of bulls, lambs, or male goats.

12When you come to appear before me, who requires this from you — this trampling of my courts?

13Stop bringing useless offerings. Your incense is detestable to me. New Moons and Sabbaths, and the calling of solemn assemblies  — I cannot stand iniquity with a festival.

14I hate your New Moons and prescribed festivals. They have become a burden to me; I am tired of putting up with them.

15When you spread out your hands in prayer, I will refuse to look at you; even if you offer countless prayers, I will not listen. Your hands are covered with blood.

16“Wash yourselves. Cleanse yourselves. Remove your evil deeds from my sight. Stop doing evil.
