Bible verse
When you come to appear before Me, who has required this of you—this trampling of My courts?
Isaiah 1:12 · BSB
The verses around it, from Isaiah 1.
8 And the Daughter of Zion is abandoned like a shelter in a vineyard, like a shack in a cucumber field, like a city besieged.
9 Unless the LORD of Hosts had left us a few survivors, we would have become like Sodom, we would have resembled Gomorrah.
10 Hear the word of the LORD, you rulers of Sodom; listen to the instruction of our God, you people of Gomorrah!
11 “What good to Me is your multitude of sacrifices?” says the LORD. “I am full from the burnt offerings of rams and the fat of well-fed cattle; I take no delight in the blood of bulls and lambs and goats.
12 When you come to appear before Me, who has required this of you—this trampling of My courts?
13 Bring your worthless offerings no more; your incense is detestable to Me—your New Moons, Sabbaths, and convocations. I cannot endure iniquity in a solemn assembly.
14 I hate your New Moons and your appointed feasts. They have become a burden to Me; I am weary of bearing them.
15 When you spread out your hands in prayer, I will hide My eyes from you; even though you multiply your prayers, I will not listen. Your hands are covered with blood.
16 Wash and cleanse yourselves. Remove your evil deeds from My sight. Stop doing evil!
