21I hate, I reject your festivals, and I will not delight in your solemn assemblies.

22For even if you offer up to me burnt offerings and your grain offerings, I will not accept them; and I will not look upon the peace offerings of your fattened animals.

23Take away from me the noise of your songs, and I will not listen to the melody of your harps.

24But let justice roll down like waters, and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream.
