Ezekiel 20:3

Then shall the seers be ashamed, and the diviners confounded: yea, they shall all cover their lips; for there is no answer of God.

He that turneth away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer shall be abomination.

But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?

The sacrifice of the wicked is abomination: how much more, when he bringeth it with a wicked mind?

God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.

When ye come to appear before me, who hath required this at your hand, to tread my courts?

And when ye spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from you: yea, when ye make many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood.

The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD: but the prayer of the upright is his delight.

And when Saul enquired of the LORD, the LORD answered him not, neither by dreams, nor by Urim, nor by prophets.

Then said he to the multitude that came forth to be baptized of him, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?

For when ye offer your gifts, when ye make your sons to pass through the fire, ye pollute yourselves with all your idols, even unto this day: and shall I be enquired of by you, O house of Israel? As I live, saith the Lord GOD, I will not be enquired of by you.
