Offering Sacrifices

18 If one sacrifices from what has been wrongfully obtained, the offering is blemished;[a]
    the gifts[b] of the lawless are not acceptable.
19 The Most High is not pleased with the offerings of the ungodly;
    and he is not propitiated for sins by a multitude of sacrifices.
20 Like one who kills a son before his father’s eyes
    is the man who offers a sacrifice from the property of the poor.
