Sekalipun mereka berpuasa, Aku tidak akan mendengarkan seruan mereka; sekalipun mereka mempersembahkan korban bakaran dan korban sajian, Aku tidak akan berkenan kepada mereka, melainkan Aku akan menghabiskan mereka dengan perang, dengan kelaparan dan dengan penyakit sampar."
Jikalau mereka itu berpuasa sekalipun, tiada juga Aku dengar akan tangisnya, meskipun mereka itu mempersembahkan korban bakaran dan persembahan makanan, tiada juga Aku berkenan akan mereka itu; melainkan Aku akan menghabiskan mereka itu kelak oleh pedang dan oleh lapar dan oleh bapa sampar.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
When they fast, I will not hear their cry,.... Or, "though they fast" k; very probably on account of the want of rain, and the dearth or famine, a fast was proclaimed; see Jeremiah 36:9, when they prayed and cried aloud, and made a great noise; but their prayers being hypocritical, and not arising from a pure heart, or offered up in faith and love, were not heard and accepted by the Lord:
and when they offer burnt offerings and an oblation; or a meat or bread offering, which went along with the burnt offering; thinking by those outward things to atone for their sins, without true repentance for them, or faith in the atoning sacrifice of Christ:
I will not accept them; neither their offerings, nor their persons:
but I will consume them by the sword, and by the famine, and by the pestilence; the Lord not only determines the continuance of the famine, notwithstanding the prayers of the prophet; but adds two other judgments, the sword and pestilence, by which he was resolved to consume them; and therefore it was to no purpose to pray to him on their behalf, he was inexorable.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Their cry i. e - prayer offered aloud.
Oblation - A meat-offering Leviticus 2:1.
The sword, famine, and pestilence - The two latter ever follow upon the track of the first Ezekiel 5:12, and by these God will consume them, yet so as to leave a remnant. The chastisement, which crushes those who harden themselves against it, purifies the penitent.
