1 Samuel 15:23

23 For rebellion is as the sin of divination,
and presumption is as iniquity and ^aidolatry.
Because ^byou have rejected the word of the Lord,
^che has also rejected you from being king.”

Isaiah 66:3

3 ^d“He who slaughters an ox is like one who kills a man;
he who sacrifices a lamb, like one who breaks a dog’s neck;
he who presents a grain offering, like one who offers ^epig’s blood;
he who makes a memorial offering of frankincense, like one who blesses an idol.
^fThese have chosen their own ways,
and their soul delights in their abominations;
