- Sacrifice:
- "I will not¹ reproveª° thee for¹ thy sacrificesª or thy burnt offerings,ª [to have been] continuallyª before¹ me." {Psa 50:8} + "For¹ thou desirestª° not¹ sacrifice;ª else would I giveª° [it]: thou delightestª° not¹ in burnt offering.ª" {Psa 51:16} + "And Samuelª said,ª° Hath the LORDª [as great] delightª in burnt offeringsª and sacrifices,ª as in obeyingª° the voiceª of the LORD?ª Behold,¹ to obeyª° [is] betterª than sacrifice,ª¹ [and] to hearkenª° than the fatª¹ of rams.ª" {1Sm 15:22} + "To whatª purpose [is] the multitudeª of your sacrificesª unto me? saithª° the LORD:ª I am fullª° of the burnt offeringsª of rams,ª and the fatª of fed beasts;ª and I delightª° not¹ in the bloodª of bullocks,ª or of lambs,ª or of he goats.ª" {Isa 1:11} + "He that killethª° an oxª [is as if] he slewª° a man;ª he that sacrificethª° a lamb,ª [as if] he cut off²° a dog's² neck;ª°¹ he that offerethª° an oblation,ª [as if he offered] swine'sª blood;ª he that burnethª° incense,ª [as if] he blessedª° an idol.ª Yea,¹ they¹ have chosenª° their own ways,ª and their soulª delightethª° in their abominations.ª" {Isa 66:3} + "Thus¹ saithª° the LORDª of hosts,ª the Godª of Israel;ª Putª° your burnt offeringsª unto¹ your sacrifices,ª and eatª° flesh.ª ... But¹¹¹ this¹ thingª commandedª° I them, saying,ª° Obeyª° my voice,ª and I will be¹ your God,ª and ye¹ shall be¹ my people:ª and walkª° ye in all¹ the waysª that¹ I have commandedª° you, that¹ it may be wellª° unto you." {Jer 7:21-23} + "For¹ I desiredª° mercy,ª and not¹ sacrifice;ª and the knowledgeª of Godª more than burnt offerings.ª¹" {Hsa 6:6} + "Butª go¹ ye²° and learnª° whatª [that] meaneth,ª° I willª° have mercy,ª andª notª sacrifice:ª forª I am²° notª comeª° to callª° the righteous,ª butª sinnersª toª repentance.ª" {Mtt 9:13} + "Butª ifª ye had knownª° whatª [this] meaneth,ª° I will¹ have²° mercy,ª andª notª sacrifice,ª ye would² notª have condemnedª° the¹ guiltless.ª" {Mtt 12:7} + "Whereforeª when he comethª° intoª the¹ world,ª he saith,ª° Sacrificeª andª offeringª thou wouldestª° not,ª butª a bodyª hast thou preparedª° me:ª ... Butª this man,ª after he had offeredª° oneª sacrificeª forª sinsª for² ever,ª¹ sat downª° onª the right handª of God;ª" {Hbr 10:5-12}
