When Your Hands are full of Blood
[12] When you come to appear before me,
who has asked this of you,
this trampling of my courts?
[13] Stop bringing meaningless offerings!
Your incense is detestable to me.
New Moons, Sabbaths and convocations—
I cannot bear your worthless assemblies.
[14] Your New Moon feasts and your appointed festivals
I hate with all my being.
They have become a burden to me;
I am weary of bearing them.
[15] When you spread out your hands in prayer,
I hide my eyes from you;
even when you offer many prayers,
I am not listening.
Your hands are full of blood!
[16] Wash and make yourselves clean.
Take your evil deeds out of my sight;
stop doing wrong.
[17] Learn to do right; seek justice.
Defend the oppressed.
Take up the cause of the fatherless;
plead the case of the widow.

Keep the Faith. Best regards,
Bro. Rontabs, N.D.S.M.D.
