¹⁰ Hear the word of the Lord,^(A)
    you rulers of Sodom;^(B)
listen to the instruction^(C) of our God,
    you people of Gomorrah!^(D)
11 “The multitude of your sacrifices—
    what are they to me?” says the Lord.
“I have more than enough of burnt offerings,
    of rams and the fat of fattened animals;^(E)
I have no pleasure^(F)
    in the blood of bulls^(G) and lambs and goats.^(H)
12 When you come to appear before me,
    who has asked this of you,^(I)
    this trampling of my courts?
¹³ Stop bringing meaningless offerings!^(J)
    Your incense^(K) is detestable^(L) to me.
New Moons,^(M) Sabbaths and convocations^(N)—
    I cannot bear your worthless assemblies.
¹⁴ Your New Moon^(O) feasts and your appointed festivals^(P)
    I hate with all my being.^(Q)
They have become a burden to me;^(R)
    I am weary^(S) of bearing them.
¹⁵ When you spread out your hands^(T) in prayer,
    I hide^(U) my eyes from you;
even when you offer many prayers,
    I am not listening.^(V)

Your hands^(W) are full of blood!^(X)
