8 I have no complaint about your sacrifices
or the burnt offerings you constantly offer.

and I own the cattle on a thousand hills.
11 I know every bird on the mountains,
and all the animals of the field are mine.
12 If I were hungry, I would not tell you,
for all the world is mine and everything in it.
13 Do I eat the meat of bulls?
Do I drink the blood of goats?

When you take away their breath,
they die and turn again to dust.
