Proverbs 1:28-29

    [28] Then they will call upon me, but I will not answer;

Isaiah 1:15-17

    [15] When you spread out your hands,

        I will hide my eyes from you;

    even though you make many prayers,

        I will not listen;

        your hands are full of blood. 

    [16] Wash yourselves; make yourselves clean;

        remove the evil of your deeds from before my eyes;

    seek justice,

        correct oppression;

    bring justice to the fatherless,

        plead the widow’s cause.
