21. the people which I formed for myself, that they might set forth my praise.
22. Yet thou hast not called upon me, O Jacob; but thou hast been weary of me, O Israel.
23. Thou hast not brought me the small cattle of thy burnt offerings; neither hast thou honoured me with thy sacrifices. I have not made thee to serve with offerings, nor wearied thee with frankincense.
24. Thou hast bought me no sweet cane with money, neither hast thou filled me with the fat of thy sacrifices: but thou hast made me to serve with thy sins, thou hast wearied me with thine iniquities.
25. I, even I, am he that blotteth out thy transgressions for mine own sake; and I will not remember thy sins.
26. Put me in remembrance; let us plead together: set thou forth thy cause, that thou mayest be justified.
27. Thy first father sinned, and thine interpreters have transgressed against me.
28. Therefore I will profane the princes of the sanctuary, and I will make Jacob a curse, and Israel a reviling.
