12 When you come to appear before me,
    who asked for this from your hand:
    you trampling my courts?
13 You must not continue[a] to bring offerings[b] of futility,
    incense—it is an abomination to me;
new moon and Sabbath, the calling of a convocation—

    they have become to me like a burden,
    I am not able to bear them.
