New King James Version
8 (A)I will not [a]rebuke you (B)for your sacrifices
Or your burnt offerings,
Which are continually before Me.
9 (C)I will not take a bull from your house,

10 For every beast of the forest is Mine,
And the cattle on a thousand hills.

And the wild beasts of the field are Mine.

(D)For the world is Mine, and all its fullness.
13 (E)Will I eat the flesh of bulls,
Or drink the blood of goats?
