Context Israel's Unfaithfulness
22But you have not called on me, O Jacob; but you have been weary of me, O Israel. 23You have not brought me the small cattle of your burnt offerings; neither have you honored me with your sacrifices. I have not caused you to serve with an offering, nor wearied you with incense. 24You have bought me no sweet cane with money, neither have you filled me with the fat of your sacrifices: but you have made me to serve with your sins, you have wearied me with your iniquities. 25I, even I, am he that blots out your transgressions for my own sake, and will not remember your sins. 26Put me in remembrance: let us plead together: declare you, that you may be justified. 27Your first father has sinned, and your teachers have transgressed against me. 28Therefore I have profaned the princes of the sanctuary, and have given Jacob to the curse, and Israel to reproaches.
