Isaiah 43:24
You have not bought Me sweet cane with your silver,
from Israel’s Unfaithfulness, Isaiah 43:22-28
What it says

Instead of honoring God, they have burdened Him with sins and wearied Him with iniquities.

What it is doing

This verse reverses the expected complaint: the burdened party is God.

In context
