Let Justice Roll On

21 “I hate—I despise—your festival days,
    and your solemn convocations stink.[a]
22 And[b] if you send up burnt offerings to me

    nor will I consider your peace offerings of fattened cattle.
23 Spare me your noisy singing—
    I will not listen to your musical instruments.[c]
