14 I hate your New Moon feasts
    and your other yearly feasts.
They have become like heavy weights on me.
    I am tired of carrying them.
15 You will raise your arms in prayer to me.
    But I will refuse to look at you.
Even if you say many prayers,
    I will not listen to you.
It’s because your hands are full of blood.
16 Wash yourselves and make yourselves clean.
    Stop doing the evil things I see you do.
Stop doing wrong!

    I am not listening.(H)

16 Wash(K) and make yourselves clean.
    Take your evil deeds out of my sight;(L)
    stop doing wrong.(M)
