Isaiah 1:14-16
International Standard Version
14 As for your New Moons and your appointed festivals,
I abhor[a] them.
They’ve become a burden to me;
I’ve grown weary of carrying that burden.[b]
15 When you spread out your hands in prayer,[c]
I’ll hide my eyes from you.
Even though you pray repeatedly,
I won’t listen.
Your hands are full of blood,
your fingers drenched[d] with iniquity.”[e]
An Invitation to Reconciliation
16 “Wash yourselves,
and[f] make yourselves clean;
remove your evil behavior
from my presence;
stop practicing what is evil.
