Isaiah 1:13-15
New International Version
13 Stop bringing meaningless offerings!(A)
Your incense(B) is detestable(C) to me.
New Moons,(D) Sabbaths and convocations(E)—
I cannot bear your worthless assemblies.
14 Your New Moon(F) feasts and your appointed festivals(G)
I hate with all my being.(H)
They have become a burden to me;(I)
I am weary(J) of bearing them.
15 When you spread out your hands(K) in prayer,
I hide(L) my eyes from you;
even when you offer many prayers,
I am not listening.(M)
Ezekiel 23:38-39
New International Version
38 They have also done this to me: At that same time they defiled my sanctuary(A) and desecrated my Sabbaths.(B) 39 On the very day they sacrificed their children to their idols, they entered my sanctuary and desecrated(C) it. That is what they did in my house.(D)
Ezekiel 43:7
New International Version
7 He said: “Son of man, this is the place of my throne(A) and the place for the soles of my feet. This is where I will live among the Israelites forever. The people of Israel will never again defile(B) my holy name—neither they nor their kings—by their prostitution and the funeral offerings[a] for their kings at their death.[b](C)
