Isaiah 1:10-16

10 Hear the word of the Lord,
you rulers of ^a, ^bSodom!
Give ear to the teaching ^{▼▼Or law} of our God,
you people of ^dGomorrah!
11 ^e“What to me is the multitude of your sacrifices?
says the Lord;
I have had enough of burnt offerings of rams
and the fat of well-fed beasts;
I do not delight in the blood of bulls,
or of lambs, or of goats.
12 “When you come to ^fappear before me,
who has required of you
this trampling of my courts?
13 Bring no more vain offerings;
incense is an abomination to me.
^gNew moon and Sabbath and the ^hcalling of convocations—
I cannot endure ⁱiniquity and ^jsolemn assembly.
14 Your ^knew moons and your appointed feasts
my soul hates;
they have become a burden to me;
I am weary of bearing them.
15 When you ^lspread out your hands,
I will hide my eyes from you;
^meven though you make many prayers,
I will not listen;
ⁿyour hands are full of blood.
16 ^oWash yourselves; make yourselves clean;
remove the evil of your deeds from before my eyes;
^pcease to do evil,

Matthew 7:6

6 ^q“Do not give ^rdogs what is holy, and do not throw your ^spearls before pigs, lest they trample them underfoot and turn to attack you.

Romans 2:28-29

28 For ^tno one is a Jew ^uwho is merely one outwardly, nor is circumcision outward and physical. 29 But a Jew is one ^vinwardly, and ^wcircumcision is a matter of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the letter. ^xHis praise is not from man but from God.

1 Corinthians 7:19

19 ^yFor neither circumcision counts for anything nor uncircumcision, but ^zkeeping the commandments of God.
