Isaiah 43 — Context

You have not made me burned offerings of sheep, or given me honour with your offerings of beasts; I did not make you servants to give me an offering, and I did not make you tired with requests for perfumes.

You have not got me sweet-smelling plants with your money, or given me pleasure with the fat of your offerings: but you have made me a servant to your sins, and you have made me tired with your evil doings.

I, even I, am he who takes away your sins; and I will no longer keep your evil doings in mind.

Put me in mind of this; let us take up the cause between us: put forward your cause, so that you may be seen to be in the right.

Your first father was a sinner, and your guides have gone against my word.

Your chiefs have made my holy place unclean, so I have made Jacob a curse, and Israel a thing of shame.
