23. Thou hast not brought me the animals of thy burnt offerings; neither hast thou honoured me with thy sacrifices. I have not caused thee to serve with an offering, nor wearied thee with incense.
24. Thou hast bought me no sweet cane with money, neither hast thou filled me with the fat of thy sacrifices, but thou hast made me to serve with thy sins; thou hast wearied me with thine iniquities.
25. I, even I, am he that uproots thy rebellions for mine own sake and will not remember thy sins.
26. Cause me to remember; let us enter into judgment together; declare, thou, that it may be put to thy account.
27. Thy first father sinned, and thy teachers have transgressed against me.
28. Therefore I have profaned the princes of the sanctuary and have set up Jacob as anathema, and Israel as a reproach.
