  • Ps 40:6-8 : 6 You, LORD my God, have done many wonderful works, and Your plans are beyond comparison. If I tried to declare and speak of them, they are too numerous to count. 7 Sacrifice and offering You did not desire, but You have prepared my ears to listen; burnt offering and sin offering You did not require. 8 Then I said, 'Here I am; I have come. In the scroll of the book it is written about me.'
  • Hos 6:6 : 6 For I desire steadfast love and not sacrifice, the knowledge of God rather than burnt offerings.
  • Heb 10:4-9 : 4 For it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins. 5 Therefore, when He comes into the world, He says, "Sacrifice and offering You did not desire, but You prepared a body for Me. 6 You were not pleased with whole burnt offerings and offerings for sin. 7 Then I said, 'Behold, I have come—it is written about Me in the scroll of the book—to do Your will, O God.'" 8 After saying above that sacrifices, offerings, whole burnt offerings, and offerings for sins You did not desire nor were pleased with—which are offered according to the law— 9 then He said, 'Behold, I have come to do Your will.' He takes away the first to establish the second. 10 And by that will, we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
  • Ps 51:16 : 16 Deliver me from bloodguilt, O God, the God of my salvation, and my tongue will sing of your righteousness.
  • Isa 1:11-31 : 11 "What is the multitude of your sacrifices to Me?" says the LORD. "I have had enough of burnt offerings of rams and the fat of well-fed animals; I take no pleasure in the blood of bulls, lambs, or goats. 12 When you come to appear before Me, who has asked this of you, this trampling of My courts? 13 Do not bring any more meaningless offerings; your incense is detestable to Me. New Moons, Sabbaths, and the calling of assemblies—I cannot endure iniquity combined with solemn assembly. 14 Your New Moons and appointed festivals My soul hates. They have become a burden to Me; I am weary of bearing them. 15 When you spread out your hands in prayer, I will hide My eyes from you. Even though you multiply your prayers, I will not listen. Your hands are full of blood. 16 Wash yourselves and make yourselves clean. Remove your evil deeds from My sight; stop doing evil. 17 Learn to do what is good; seek justice, correct the oppressor. Defend the cause of the fatherless and plead the case of the widow. 18 "Come now, let us reason together," says the LORD. "Though your sins are as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall become like wool. 19 If you are willing and obedient, you will eat the best of the land. 20 But if you refuse and rebel, you will be devoured by the sword, for the mouth of the LORD has spoken. 21 How the faithful city has become a prostitute! She was full of justice; righteousness once dwelt in her, but now murderers. 22 Your silver has become dross, your wine is diluted with water. 23 Your rulers are rebellious and companions of thieves; they all love bribes and chase after gifts. They do not defend the fatherless, and the widow's case never comes before them. 24 Therefore, this is the declaration of the Lord, the LORD of Hosts, the Mighty One of Israel: "I will gain relief from My adversaries and avenge Myself on My enemies. 25 I will turn My hand against you; I will thoroughly purify your dross as with lye and remove all your impurities. 26 I will restore your judges as at the beginning, and your counselors as at the start. Afterward, you will be called the City of Righteousness, the Faithful City. 27 Zion will be redeemed through justice, and her repentant ones through righteousness. 28 But rebels and sinners will be destroyed together, and those who forsake the LORD will perish. 29 You will be ashamed because of the terebinths that you desired, and you will blush because of the gardens you have chosen. 30 For you will be like a terebinth whose leaves wither, and like a garden without water. 31 The strong one will become tinder, and his work a spark; both will burn together, and no one will extinguish them.
  • Jer 7:21-23 : 21 This is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: Add your burnt offerings to your sacrifices and eat the meat yourselves! 22 For when I brought your ancestors out of the land of Egypt, I did not speak to them or command them concerning burnt offerings and sacrifices. 23 But this is what I commanded them: Listen to my voice, and I will be your God, and you will be my people. Walk in all the ways I command you, so that it may go well with you.
