Isaiah 43:22-28

New International Version

²² “Yet you have not called on me, Jacob,
    you have not wearied^(A) yourselves for^[a] me, Israel.^(B)
23 You have not brought me sheep for burnt offerings,^(C)
    nor honored^(D) me with your sacrifices.^(E)
I have not burdened^(F) you with grain offerings
    nor wearied you with demands^(G) for incense.^(H)
24 You have not bought any fragrant calamus^(I) for me,
    or lavished on me the fat^(J) of your sacrifices.
But you have burdened me with your sins
    and wearied^(K) me with your offenses.^(L)

²⁵ “I, even I, am he who blots out
    your transgressions,^(M) for my own sake,^(N)
    and remembers your sins^(O) no more.^(P)
26 Review the past for me,
    let us argue the matter together;^(Q)
    state the case^(R) for your innocence.
²⁷ Your first father^(S) sinned;
    those I sent to teach^(T) you rebelled^(U) against me.
²⁸ So I disgraced the dignitaries of your temple;
    I consigned Jacob to destruction^[b](V)
    and Israel to scorn.^(W)
