Isaiah 43:22-28

22“Yet you have not called on Me, O Jacob; But you have become 1weary of Me, O Israel.23You have 2not brought to Me the sheep of your burnt offerings, Nor have you 3honored Me with your sacrifices. I have not 4burdened you with 5offerings, Nor wearied you with 6incense.24You have bought Me not 7 8sweet cane with money, Nor have you 9filled Me with the fat of your sacrifices; Rather you have burdened Me with your sins, You have 10wearied Me with your iniquities.

25“I, even I, am the one who 11wipes out your transgressions 12for My own sake, And I will 13not remember your sins.26 14Put Me in remembrance, 15let us argue our case together; State your cause, 16that you may be proved right.27Your 17first 18forefather sinned, And your 19 20spokesmen have 21transgressed against Me.28So I will 22pollute the 23princes of the sanctuary, And I will consign Jacob to the 24ban and Israel to 25revilement.
