10: Hear the word of the LORD, ye rulers of Sodom; give ear unto the law of our God, ye people of Gomorrah.

11: To what purpose is the multitude of your sacrifices unto me? saith the LORD: I am full of the burnt offerings of rams, and the fat of fed beasts; and I delight not in the blood of bullocks, or of lambs, or of he goats.

12: When ye come to appear before me, who hath required this at your hand, to tread my courts?

13: Bring no more vain oblations; incense is an abomination unto me; the new moons and sabbaths, the calling of assemblies, I cannot away with; it is iniquity, even the solemn meeting.

14: Your new moons and your appointed feasts my soul hateth: they are a trouble unto me; I am weary to bear them.

15: And when ye spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from you: yea, when ye make many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood.

16: Wash you, make you clean; put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes; cease to do evil;

17: Learn to do well; seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widow.

18: Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
