Isaiah 1:13-19
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)

14 Your new moons and your appointed feasts my soul hateth: they are a trouble unto me; I am weary to bear them.
15 And when ye spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from you: yea, when ye make many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood.
16 Wash you, make you clean; put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes; cease to do evil;
17 Learn to do well; seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widow.
18 Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
19 If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land:
