Worship without justice

10Hear the word of Yahweh, rulers of Sodom; give ear to the instruction of our God, people of Gomorrah.

11Why are your many sacrifices to me? says Yahweh. I have had enough of burnt offerings of rams and the fat of fattened animals; and in the blood of bulls and lambs and goats I do not delight.

12When you come to appear before me, who has required this from your hand: trampling my courts?

13Do not continue bringing worthless grain offerings; incense is an abomination to me. New moon and Sabbath, the calling of an assembly—I cannot endure iniquity and solemn assembly.

14Your new moons and your appointed feasts my soul hates; they have become a burden to me; I am weary of bearing them.

15And when you spread out your palms, I hide my eyes from you; even though you multiply prayers, I am not listening. Your hands are full of blood.
