Isaiah 66:3

The Humble and Contrite in Spirit

3 "He d who kills a bull is as if he slays a man;
He who sacrifices a lamb, as if he e breaks a dog's neck;
He who offers a grain offering, as if he offers swine's blood;
He who burns incense, as if he blesses an idol.
Just as they have chosen their own ways,
And their soul delights in their abominations,
