21 Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel; rPut your burnt offerings unto your sacrifices, and rreat flesh. 22 sFor I spake not unto your fathers, nor commanded them in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, t†concerning burnt offerings or sacrifices: 23 But this thing commanded I them, saying, suObey my voice, and vI will be your God, and ye shall be my people: and wwalk ye in all the ways that I have commanded you, that xit may be well unto you. 24 yBut they hearkened not, nor inclined their ear, ybut zwalked in the counsels and ain the ||imagination of their evil heart, and †bwent backward, and not forward. 25 Since the day that your fathers came forth out of the land of Egypt unto this day cI have even sent unto you all my servants the prophets, cddaily rising up early and sending them: 26 eYet they hearkened not unto me, enor inclined their ear, but fhardened their neck: gthey did worse than their fathers. 27 Therefore hthou shalt speak all these words unto them; but they will not hearken to thee: ithou shalt also call unto them; but they will not answer thee. 28 But thou shalt say unto them, This is a nation that obeyeth not the voice of the Lord their God, knor receiveth ||correction: ltruth is perished, and is cut off from their mouth.
