Why
should
ye be
stricken any more? ye will
revolt

wounds

sores:
they have not been closed ,
neither
bound up
, neither
mollified
with ointment.

give ear unto
the law of our God, ye people of Gomorrah .

purpose
is
the multitude
of your sacrifices unto
me
? saith the
LORD:
I am
full
of
the
burnt offerings of rams, and the
fat of fed
beasts
; and I
delight
not
in
the
blood of bullocks, or
of
lambs, or

offerings of rams, And fat of fatlings
; And blood of bullocks, and
lambs, And
he -
goats I
have
not
desired
.

more
vain oblations;

, the
calling of assemblies,
I
cannot
away
with;
it
is
iniquity ,
even
the
solemn
meeting.
Add
not
to
bring in
a
vain present,
Incense --
an abomination it
`is'
to
Me ,
New moon,
and sabbath
, calling of convocation!
Rendure
not
iniquity --
and
a
restraint!
Your new moons and your appointed
feasts
my soul hateth:
they are
a
trouble
unto
me ;
I am
weary to
bear
them
.

seasons

prayers
, I will
not hear :

, and let
us
reason together
, saith the
LORD:
though
your sins be
as scarlet, they shall be as
white as

red like

wool.
Come, I
pray
you,
and we
reason, saith Jehovah,
If
your sins are
as scarlet, as
snow
they shall be white ,
If
they are
red as
crimson, as
wool
they shall be !
If ye be
willing and obedient
, ye
shall
eat
the good of the land :
If ye are
willing ,
and have
hearkened

consume,
But
if ye refuse and rebel
, ye
shall
be
devoured
with
the sword :
for the mouth of the
LORD
hath spoken it
.
And
if ye refuse ,
and have
rebelled
, `By'

the cause
of the widow come
unto
them.
