Pro 15:8, 21:27, 28:9, Isa 1:11-16, 66:3, Jer 6:20, 7:21-23, Hos 8:13 | ESV | STEP | The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the Lord , but the prayer of the upright is acceptable to him .

11 ^f“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 ^gappear before me,
who has required of you
this trampling of my courts?
13 Bring no more vain offerings;
incense is an abomination to me.
^hNew moon and Sabbath and the ⁱcalling of convocations—
I cannot endure ^jiniquity and ^ksolemn assembly.
14 Your ^lnew moons and your appointed feasts
my soul hates;
they have become a burden to me;
I am weary of bearing them.
15 When you ^mspread out your hands,
I will hide my eyes from you;
ⁿeven though you make many prayers,
I will not listen;
^oyour hands are full of blood.
16 ^pWash yourselves; make yourselves clean;
remove the evil of your deeds from before my eyes;
^qcease to do evil,

Isaiah 66:3

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

Jeremiah 6:20

20 ^uWhat use to me is ^vfrankincense that comes from ^wSheba,
or sweet cane from a distant land?
^xYour burnt offerings are not acceptable,
nor your sacrifices pleasing to me.

Jeremiah 7:21-23

21 Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: ^y“Add your burnt offerings to your sacrifices, and eat the flesh. 22 For in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, I did not speak to your fathers or command them ^zconcerning burnt offerings and sacrifices. 23 But this command I gave them: ^aa‘Obey my voice, and ^abI will be your God, and you shall be my people. ^acAnd walk in all the way that I command you, ^adthat it may be well with you.’

Hosea 8:13

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