22 If you bring me your entirely burned offerings and gifts of food—I won’t be pleased;I won’t even look at your offerings of well-fed animals.
23 Take away the noise of your songs;I won’t listen to the melody of your harps.
24 But let justice roll down like waters,and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream.
25 Did you bring me sacrifices and offeringsduring the forty years in the wilderness, house of Israel?
26 You will take up Sakkuth your king,and Kaiwan your star-god,your images, which you made for yourselves.
27 Therefore, I will take you awaybeyond Damascus, says the Lord, whose name is the God of heavenly forces.
