Isaiah 43:22-28

22“Yet you have not called on Me, Jacob; But you have become 1weary of Me, 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 not bought Me 7 8sweet cane with money, Nor have you satisfied Me with the fat of your sacrifices; Rather, you have burdened Me with your sins, You have 9wearied Me with your wrongdoings.

25“I, I alone, am the one who 10wipes out your wrongdoings 11for My own sake, And I will 12not remember your sins.26 13Meet Me in court, 14let’s argue our case together; State your cause, 15so that you may be proved right.27Your 16first 17forefather sinned, And your 18 19spokesmen have rebelled against Me.28So I will profane the 20officials of the sanctuary, And I will turn Jacob over to 21destruction and Israel to 22abuse.
