Isaiah 43:22-24

Contemporary English Version

²² I, the Lord, said to Israel:
You have become weary of me,
    but not from worshiping me.
²³ You have not honored me
by sacrificing sheep
    or other animals.
And I have not burdened you
with demands for sacrifices
    or sweet-smelling incense.

²⁴ You have not brought
    delicious spices for me
or given me the best part
    of your sacrificed animals.
Instead, you burden me down
    with your terrible sins.
