Isaiah 1:11-17
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
11 What to me is the multitude of your sacrifices?
says the Lord;
I have had enough of burnt offerings of rams
and the fat of fed beasts;
I do not delight in the blood of bulls
or of lambs or of goats.(A)
12 When you come to appear before me,[a]
who asked this from your hand?
Trample my courts no more!(B)
13 Bringing offerings is futile;
incense is an abomination to me.
New moon and Sabbath and calling of convocation—
I cannot endure solemn assemblies with iniquity.(C)
14 Your new moons and your appointed festivals
my soul hates;
they have become a burden to me;
I am weary of bearing them.(D)
15 When you stretch out your hands,
I will hide my eyes from you;
even though you make many prayers,
I will not listen;
your hands are full of blood.(E)
16 Wash yourselves; make yourselves clean;
remove your evil deeds
from before my eyes;
cease to do evil;(F)
17 learn to do good;
seek justice;
rescue the oppressed;
defend the orphan;
plead for the widow.(G)

Isaiah 1:11-17
New International Version
11 “The multitude of your sacrifices—
what are they to me?” says the Lord.
“I have more than enough of burnt offerings,
of rams and the fat of fattened animals;(A)
I have no pleasure(B)
in the blood of bulls(C) and lambs and goats.(D)
12 When you come to appear before me,
who has asked this of you,(E)
this trampling of my courts?
13 Stop bringing meaningless offerings!(F)
Your incense(G) is detestable(H) to me.
New Moons,(I) Sabbaths and convocations(J)—
I cannot bear your worthless assemblies.
14 Your New Moon(K) feasts and your appointed festivals(L)
I hate with all my being.(M)
They have become a burden to me;(N)
I am weary(O) of bearing them.
15 When you spread out your hands(P) in prayer,
I hide(Q) my eyes from you;
even when you offer many prayers,
I am not listening.(R)
