Verse 3

He that killeth{H7819} an ox{H7794} is as he that slayeth{H5221} a man;{H376} he that sacrificeth{H2076} a lamb,{H7716} as he that breaketh{H6202} a dog's{H3611} neck;{H6202} he that offereth{H5927} an oblation,{H4503} as he that offereth swine's{H2386} blood;{H1818} he that burneth{H2142} frankincense,{H3828} as he that blesseth{H1288} an idol.{H205} Yea, they have chosen{H977} their own ways,{H1870} and their soul{H5315} delighteth{H2654} in their abominations:{H8251}
