¹⁰ Hear Yahweh’s word, you rulers of Sodom!
    Listen to the law of our God,^[a] you people of Gomorrah!
¹¹ “What are the multitude of your sacrifices to me?”, says Yahweh.
    “I have had enough of the burnt offerings of rams
    and the fat of fed animals.
    I don’t delight in the blood of bulls,
    or of lambs,
    or of male goats.
¹² When you come to appear before me,
    who has required this at your hand, to trample my courts?
¹³ Bring no more vain offerings.
    Incense is an abomination to me.
    New moons, Sabbaths, and convocations:
    I can’t stand evil assemblies.
¹⁴ My soul hates your New Moons and your appointed feasts.
    They are a burden to me.
    I am weary of bearing them.
¹⁵ When you spread out your hands, I will hide my eyes from you.
    Yes, when you make many prayers, I will not hear.
    Your hands are full of blood.
¹⁶ Wash yourselves. Make yourself clean.
    Put away the evil of your doings from before my eyes.
    Cease to do evil.
¹⁷ Learn to do well.
    Seek justice.
    Relieve the oppressed.
Defend the fatherless.
    Plead for the widow.”
