Sacrifice and offering thou dost not desire;
    but thou hast given me an open ear.[a]
Burnt offering and sin offering

    in the roll of the book it is written of me;
I delight to do thy will, O my God;
    thy law is within my heart.”

Consequently, when Christ[a] came into the world, he said,

“Sacrifices and offerings thou hast not desired,

in burnt offerings and sin offerings thou hast taken no pleasure.
Then I said, ‘Lo, I have come to do thy will, O God,’
as it is written of me in the roll of the book.”
