Isaiah 1:14

Israel's Corrupt Religion

¹³ Ye shall not again bring in an empty, present, Incense, an abomination, is that unto me! New moon, and sabbath calling an assembly - I cannot endure, iniquity and sacred festival! ¹⁴ Your new moons and your appointed feasts, my soul, hateth, - They have become unto me a burden I am too weary to bear: ¹⁵ Even when ye spread forth your open palms, I hide mine eyes from you; Yea, though ye multiply prayers, I am not hearkening, - Your hands, with deeds of blood, are filled.
