2 Esdras 1:31

Listen to 2 Esdras 1:31
31 and even when you offer sacrifices to me, I will turn away from you. Your religious festivals, your New Moon celebrations, or your circumcision ceremonies mean nothing to me.

2 Esdras 1:31 In-Context

29 I begged you to be my people so that I could be your God, to be my children so that I could be your father.
30 I gathered you together as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings. But now what can I do with you? I will banish you from my sight;
31 and even when you offer sacrifices to me, I will turn away from you. Your religious festivals, your New Moon celebrations, or your circumcision ceremonies mean nothing to me.
32 I sent to you my servants, the prophets, but you killed them and mutilated their corpses. I will make you pay for murdering them.
33 "The Lord Almighty says: Your Temple is abandoned. I will scatter you like straw blown away by the wind.
