Isaiah 1:10-15 English Standard Version (ESV)

10. Hear the word of the Lord,you rulers of Sodom!Give ear to the teaching of our God,you people of Gomorrah!

11. “What to me is the multitude of your sacrifices?says the Lord;I have had enough of burnt offerings of ramsand the fat of well-fed beasts;I do not delight in the blood of bulls,or of lambs, or of goats.

12. “When you come to appear before me,who has required of youthis trampling of my courts?

13. Bring no more vain offerings;incense is an abomination to me. New moon and Sabbath and the calling of convocations—I cannot endure iniquity and solemn assembly.

14. Your new moons and your appointed feastsmy soul hates;they have become a burden to me;I am weary of bearing them.

15. When you spread out your hands,I will hide my eyes from you; even though you make many prayers,I will not listen; your hands are full of blood.
