22
Even though you offer me your burnt offerings and grain offerings, I will not accept them; and the offerings of well-being of your fatted animals I will not look upon.
23
Take away from me the noise of your songs; I will not listen to the melody of your harps.
24
But let justice roll down like waters, and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream.
25
Did you bring to me sacrifices and offerings the forty years in the wilderness, O house of Israel?
26
You shall take up Sakkuth your king, and Kaiwan your star-god, your images, a which you made for yourselves;
27
therefore I will take you into exile beyond Damascus, says the Lord, whose name is the God of hosts.
