For I am the Lord who loves righteousness, and hate robberies of injustice; and I will give their labor to the just, and will make an everlasting covenant with them.

I hate, I reject your feasts, and I will not smell your grain offerings in your general assemblies.

Neither have you purchased for Me victims for silver, neither have I desired the fat of your sacrifices; but you stood before Me in your sins, and in your iniquities.

Therefore behold, I roll under you, as a wagon full of straw is rolled.

And I will cut off three shepherds in one month, and My soul shall grieve over them, for their souls cried out against Me.

you that have provoked God with your words. But you said, In what way have we provoked Him? In that you say, Everyone that does evil is a pleasing object in the sight of the Lord, and He takes pleasure in such; and where is the God of justice?
