Isaiah 1:14

Your new moons and your appointed feasts my soul hateth: they are a trouble unto me; I am weary to bear them.

Calendas vestras, et solemnitates vestras odivit anima mea : facta sunt mihi molesta ; laboravi sustinens.

Vulgate

LXX

Your new moons and your appointed feasts my soul hateth; they are a trouble unto me; I am weary of bearing them.
