(A)“Hear, O my people, and I will speak;
    O Israel, I will testify against you.
    (B)I am God, your God.
Not for your sacrifices (C)do I rebuke you;
    your burnt offerings are continually before me.
I will not accept a bull from your house
    or goats from your folds.
10 For every beast of the forest is mine,
    the cattle on a thousand hills.
11 (D)I know all the birds of the hills,
    and all that moves in the field is mine.

12 “If I were hungry, I would not tell you,
    (E)for the world and its fullness are mine.
