As a hut in a garden of cucumbers,
bAs a besieged city.
Had left to us a very small remnant,
We would have become like bSodom,
We would have been made like Gomorrah.
You rulers aof Sodom;
Give ear to the law of our God,
You people of Gomorrah:
Says the Lord.
“I have had enough of burnt offerings of rams
And the fat of fed cattle.
I do not delight in the blood of bulls,
Or of lambs or goats.
Incense is an abomination to Me.
The New Moons, the Sabbaths, and bthe calling of assemblies—
I cannot endure iniquity and the sacred meeting.
My soul hates;
They are a trouble to Me,
I am weary of bearing them.
I will hide My eyes from you;
bEven though you make many prayers,
I will not hear.
Your hands are full of1 blood.
Put away the evil of your doings from before My eyes.
bCease to do evil,
| << Isaiah 1:9 | Isaiah 1:11 >> |
