9
Unless Yahweh of hosts had left to us a very small remnant, We would have been as Sodom; We would have been like Gomorrah.
10
Hear the word of Yahweh, you rulers of Sodom. Listen to the law of our God, you people of Gomorrah.
11
What are the multitude of your sacrifices to me?, says Yahweh. I have had enough of the burnt offerings of rams, And the fat of fed animals. I don`t delight in the blood of bulls, Or of lambs, Or of male goats.
12
When you come to appear before me, Who has required this at your hand, to trample my courts?
13
Bring no more vain offerings. Incense is an abomination to me; New moons, Sabbaths, and convocations: I can`t bear with evil assemblies.
14
My soul hates your New Moons and your appointed feasts; they are a trouble to me; I am weary of bearing them.
15
When you spread forth your hands, I will hide my eyes from you; yes, when you make many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood.
