13 Lo, I am pressing you under, As the full cart doth press for itself a sheaf.
Your new moons and your set seasons hath My soul hated, They have been upon me for a burden, I have been weary of bearing.
How often do they provoke Him in the wilderness, Grieve Him in the desolate place?
Thou hast not bought for Me with money sweet cane, And `with' the fat of thy sacrifices hast not filled Me, Only -- thou hast caused Me to serve with thy sins, Thou hast wearied Me with thine iniquities.
And remembered Me have your escaped among nations, Whither they have been taken captive, Because I have been broken with their heart that is going a-whoring, That hath turned aside from off Me, And with their eyes they are going a-whoring after their idols, And they have been loathsome in their own faces, For the evils that they have done -- all their abominations.
