7“16HearH8085, My peopleH5971, and I will speakH1696; IsraelH3478, I will testifyH5749 17against you; I am GodH430, 18your GodH430.8I do 19not rebukeH3198 you for your sacrificesH2077, And your burntH5930 offeringsH5930 are continuallyH8548 beforeH5048 Me.9I will not takeH3947 a 20bullH6499 from your houseH1004, Nor maleH6260 goatsH6260 from your foldsH4356.10For 21everyH3605 animalH2421 of the forestH3293 is Mine, The cattleH929 on a thousandH505 hillsH2022.11I knowH3045 everyH3605 22birdH5775 of the mountainsH2022, And everythingH2123 thatH2123 movesH2123 in the fieldH7706 is 23MineH5973.12IfH518 I were hungryH7456 I would not tellH559 you, For the 24worldH8398 is Mine, and 25everythingH4393 it containsH4393.13Shall I eatH398 the fleshH1320 of 2627bullsH47 Or drinkH8354 the bloodH1818 of maleH6260 goatsH6260?14OfferH2076 GodH430 28aH2076 sacrificeH2076 of thanksgivingH8426 And 29payH7999 your vowsH5088 to the MostH5945 HighH5945;1530CallH7121 upon Me on the dayH3117 of troubleH6869; I will 31rescueH2502 you, and you will 32honorH3513 Me.”

16But to the wickedH7563 GodH430 saysH559, “WhatH4100 right do you have to tellH5608 of My statutesH2706 And to takeH5375 33My covenantH1285 in your mouthH6310?17For you yourselfH859 34hateH8130 disciplineH4148, And you 35throwH7993 My wordsH1697 behindH310 you.18WhenH518 you seeH7200 a thiefH1590, you 36becomeH7521 friendsH7521 with him, And 37you 38associateH2506 with adulterersH5003.19You 3940letH7971 your mouthH6310 looseH7971 in evilH7463, And your 41tongueH3956 harnessesH6775 deceitH4820.20You sitH3427 and 42speakH1696 against your brotherH251; You slanderH5414H1848 your own mother’sH517 sonH1121.21TheseH428 thingsH428 you have doneH6213 and 43I keptH2790 silentH2790; You thoughtH1819 that I was just likeH3644 you; I will 44rebukeH3198 you and presentH6186 the case before your eyesH5869.

22“NowH4994 considerH995 thisH2088, you who 45forgetH7911 GodH433, OrH6435 I will 46tearH2963 you in pieces, and thereH369 willH369 beH369 noH369 oneH369 to saveH5337 you.23He who 47offersH2076 aH2076 sacrificeH2076 of thanksgivingH8426 honorsH3513 Me; And to him who 48setsH7760 his wayH1870 properly I will 49showH7200 the salvationH3468 of GodH430.”
