* When ye come to appear before me , who hath required this at your hand , to tread my courts ? * Bring no more vain oblations ; incense is an abomination unto me ; the new moons and sabbaths , the calling of assemblies , I cannot away with ; it is iniquity , even the solemn meeting . * Your new moons and your appointed feasts my soul hateth : they are a trouble unto me ; I am weary to bear them . * And when ye spread forth your hands , I will hide mine eyes from you : yea , when ye make many prayers , I will not hear : your hands are full of blood . * Wash you , make you clean ; put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes ; cease to do evil ; * Learn to do well ; seek judgment , relieve the oppressed , judge the fatherless , plead for the widow . * Come now , and let us reason together , saith the LORD : though your sins be as scarlet , they shall be as white as snow ; though they be red like crimson , they shall be as wool . * If ye be willing and obedient , ye shall eat the good of the land : * But if ye refuse and rebel , ye shall be devoured with the sword : for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it .
