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!
