God Will Judge All Nations

66 This is what the Lord says:
“Heaven is my throne,
    and the earth is where I rest my feet.
So do you think you can build a house for me?
    Do I need a place to rest?
I am the one who made all things.
    They are all here because I made them,” says the Lord.
“These are the people I care for:
    the poor, humble people who obey my commands.
Some people kill bulls as a sacrifice,
    but they also beat people.
They kill sheep as a sacrifice,
    but they also break the necks of dogs.
They offer up grain offerings,
    but they also offer the blood of pigs.[a]
They burn incense,
    but they also love their worthless idols.
They choose their own ways,
    and they love their terrible idols.
