Isaiah 66:3
English Standard Version
3 (A)“He who slaughters an ox is like one who kills a man;
he who sacrifices a lamb, like one who breaks a dog's neck;
he who presents a grain offering, like one who offers (B)pig's blood;
he who makes a memorial offering of frankincense, like one who blesses an idol.
(C)These have chosen their own ways,
and their soul delights in their abominations;
Isaiah 66:3
New International Version
3 But whoever sacrifices a bull(A)
is like one who kills a person,
and whoever offers a lamb
is like one who breaks a dog’s neck;
whoever makes a grain offering
is like one who presents pig’s(B) blood,
and whoever burns memorial incense(C)
is like one who worships an idol.
They have chosen their own ways,(D)
and they delight in their abominations;(E)

says the Lord;
I have had enough of burnt offerings of rams
and the fat of well-fed beasts;
I do not delight in the blood of bulls,
or of lambs, or of goats.
12 “When you come to (B)appear before me,
who has required of you
this trampling of my courts?
13 Bring no more vain offerings;
incense is an abomination to me.
(C)New moon and Sabbath and the (D)calling of convocations—
I cannot endure (E)iniquity and (F)solemn assembly.
14 Your (G)new moons and your appointed feasts
my soul hates;
they have become a burden to me;
I am weary of bearing them.
15 When you (H)spread out your hands,
I will hide my eyes from you;
(I)even though you make many prayers,
I will not listen;
(J)your hands are full of blood.
