Isa 1:11-15, 57:6, 66:3, Jer 6:20, Hos 8:13, Amo 4:4-5, 5:22, Mal 1:9-10 | ESV | STEP | What to me is the multitude of your sacrifices ? says the Lord ; I have had enough of burnt offerings of rams and the fat of well-fed beasts ; I do not delight in the blood of bulls , or of lambs , or of goats .

11 ^a“What to me is the multitude of your sacrifices?
says the Lord;
I have had enough of burnt offerings of rams
and the fat of well-fed beasts;
I do not delight in the blood of bulls,
or of lambs, or of goats.
12 “When you come to ^bappear before me,
who has required of you
this trampling of my courts?
13 Bring no more vain offerings;
incense is an abomination to me.
^cNew moon and Sabbath and the ^dcalling of convocations—
I cannot endure ^einiquity and ^fsolemn assembly.
14 Your ^gnew moons and your appointed feasts
my soul hates;
they have become a burden to me;
I am weary of bearing them.
15 When you ^hspread out your hands,
I will hide my eyes from you;
ⁱeven though you make many prayers,
I will not listen;
^jyour hands are full of blood.

Isaiah 57:6

6 Among the smooth stones of ^kthe valley is your portion;
they, they, are your lot;
to them you have poured out a drink offering,
you have brought a grain offering.
Shall I relent for these things?

Isaiah 66:3

3 ^l“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 ^mpig’s blood;
he who makes a memorial offering of frankincense, like one who blesses an idol.
ⁿThese have chosen their own ways,
and their soul delights in their abominations;

Jeremiah 6:20

20 ^oWhat use to me is ^pfrankincense that comes from ^qSheba,
or sweet cane from a distant land?
^rYour burnt offerings are not acceptable,
nor your sacrifices pleasing to me.

Hosea 8:13

13 As for my sacrificial offerings,
^sthey sacrifice meat and eat it,
but the Lord does not accept them.
^tNow he will remember their iniquity
and punish their sins;
^uthey shall return to Egypt.

Amos 4:4-5

4 ^v“Come to Bethel, and transgress;
to ^wGilgal, and multiply transgression;
^xbring your ^ysacrifices every morning,
your tithes every three days;
5 offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving of ^zthat which is leavened,
and proclaim ^aafreewill offerings, publish them;
^abfor so you love to do, O people of Israel!”

declares the Lord God.

Amos 5:22

22 ^acEven though you offer me your burnt offerings and grain offerings,
I will not accept them;
and the peace offerings of your fattened animals,
I will not look upon them.

Malachi 1:9-10

9 And now ^adentreat the favor of God, that he may be gracious to us. With such a gift from your hand, ^aewill he show favor to any of you? says the Lord of hosts. 10 ^afOh that there were one among you who would shut the doors, that you might not kindle fire on my altar in vain! I have no pleasure in you, says the Lord of hosts, ^agand I will not accept an offering from your hand.
