So when ·Christ [L he] came into the world, he said:

“You did not ·want [desire] sacrifices and offerings,
    but you have ·prepared a body for me [or given me a body].
  You ·did not ask for [were not pleased with; took no delight in] burnt offerings
    and offerings to take away sins.
  Then I said, ‘·Look [or Here I am; T Behold], I have come.
    It is written about me in the ·book [scroll].
    ·God [L O God], I have come to do ·what you want [your will; Ps. 40:6–8].’”

    I have come to do your will, my God.’”[a](D)
