Therefore, (A)when He comes into the world, He says,

(B)You have not desired sacrifice and offering,
But (C)You have prepared a body for Me;
(D)You have not taken pleasure in whole burnt offerings and offerings for sin.
(E)Then I said, ‘Behold, I have come
(It is written of Me in (F)the scroll of the book)
To do Your will, O God.’”
