Put your burnt offerings to your sacrifices & eat the flesh. For when I brought your Fathers out of the land of Egypt, I spake not one word unto them of burnt offerings and sacrifices, but this I commanded them, saying: hear my voice, and I shall be your God, and ye shall be my people. See ye walk in all the ways that I have commanded you, that ye may prosper.

I hate and utterly defy your holy days, and where as ye sense me when ye come together, I will not accept it. And though ye offer me burnt offerings, yet will not I receive your gifts. Away from me with the noise of thy songs, for I can not abide the hearing of thy playing at the Organs. Provide that equity may follow as the water, and righteousness as a mighty stream, for in these things ⟨p. 59⟩have I delight and pleasure sayeth the Lord.
