1 Samuel 15:22-23
New International Version
22 But Samuel replied:
“Does the Lord delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices
as much as in obeying the Lord?
To obey is better than sacrifice,(A)
and to heed is better than the fat of rams.
23 For rebellion is like the sin of divination,(B)
and arrogance like the evil of idolatry.
Because you have rejected(C) the word of the Lord,
he has rejected you as king.”
Amos 5:21-24
New International Version
21 “I hate,(A) I despise your religious festivals;(B)
your assemblies(C) are a stench to me.
22 Even though you bring me burnt offerings(D) and grain offerings,
I will not accept them.(E)
Though you bring choice fellowship offerings,
I will have no regard for them.(F)
23 Away with the noise of your songs!
I will not listen to the music of your harps.(G)
24 But let justice(H) roll on like a river,
righteousness(I) like a never-failing stream!(J)
