Isaiah 66:2-4

New Century Version

“These are the people I am pleased with:
    those who are not proud or stubborn
    and who fear my word.
³ But those people who kill bulls as a sacrifice to me
    are like those who kill people.
Those who kill sheep as a sacrifice
    are like those who break the necks of dogs.
Those who give me grain offerings
    are like those who offer me the blood of pigs.^[a]
Those who burn incense
    are like those who worship idols.
These people choose their own ways, not mine,
    and they love the terrible things they do.
⁴ So I will choose their punishments,
    and I will punish them with what they fear most.
This is because I called to them, but they did not listen.
    I spoke to them, but they did not hear me.
They did things I said were evil;
    they chose to do things I did not like.”
