3. He who kills a bullis as if he kills a man;he who sacrifices a lamb,as if he breaks a dog’s neck;he who offers a grain offering,as if he offers swine’s blood;he who burns incense,as if he blesses an idol.They have chosen their own ways,and their soul delights in their abominations;
4. I also will choose their punishmentsand will bring their fears on them,because when I called, no one answered;when I spoke, they did not listen;but they did evil before My eyesand chose that in which I did not delight.
5. Hear the word of the Lord,you who tremble at His word:Your brothers who hate you,who cast you out for My name’s sake, said,“Let the Lord be glorifiedthat we may see your joy.”Yet they shall be ashamed.
6. A voice of noise from the city,a voice from the temple,the voice of the Lordwho renders recompense to His enemies.
