The Shortcomings of Israel

22 “Yet you have not called on Me, Jacob;
But you have become (A)weary of Me, Israel.
23 You have (B)not brought to Me the sheep of your burnt offerings,
Nor have you (C)honored Me with your sacrifices.
I have not (D)burdened you with [a]offerings,
Nor wearied you with (E)incense.
24 You have not bought Me [b](F)sweet cane with money,
Nor have you satisfied Me with the fat of your sacrifices;
Rather, you have burdened Me with your sins,
You have (G)wearied Me with your wrongdoings.

25 “I, I alone, am the one who (H)wipes out your wrongdoings (I)for My own sake,
And I will (J)not remember your sins.
