"Thou hast not¹ broughtª° me the small cattleª of thy burnt offerings;ª neither¹ hast thou honouredª° me with thy sacrifices.ª I have not¹ caused thee to serveª° with an offering,ª nor¹ weariedª° thee with incense.ª ... Thou hast boughtª° me no¹ sweet caneª with money,ª neither¹ hast thou filledª° me with the fatª of thy sacrifices:ª but¹ thou hast made me to serveª° with thy sins,ª thou hast weariedª° me with thine iniquities.ª" {Isa 43:23-24} + "Wherewith¹ shall I come beforeª° the LORD,ª [and] bow²° myself¹ before the highª God?ª shall I come beforeª° him with burnt offerings,ª with calvesª of a yearª old?ª ... He hath shewedª° thee, O man,ª what¹ [is] good;ª and what¹ doth the LORDª requireª° of¹ thee, but¹¹ to doª° justly,ª and to love²¹ mercy,ª and to walk²°¹ humblyª° with¹ thy God?ª" {Mic 6:6-8} + "Neitherª is worshippedª° withª men'sª hands,ª as though he neededª° any thing,ª seeing heª givethª° to allª life,ª andª breath,ª and² all things;ª¹" {Act 17:25} + "Forª [it is] not possibleª that the bloodª of bullsª andª of goatsª should take awayª° sins.ª ... In burnt offeringsª andª [sacrifices] forª sinª thou hast had²° no² pleasure.ª°¹" {Hbr 10:4-6} |
