(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;
(D)I also will choose harsh treatment for them
    and bring (E)their fears upon them,
(F)because when I called, no one answered,
    when I spoke, they did not listen;
(G)but they did what was evil in my eyes
    and chose that in which I did not delight.”
