7 "Hear, my people, and I will speak; Israel, and I will testify against you. I am God, your God.
8 I don`t rebuke you for your sacrifices. Your burnt offerings are continually before me.
9 I have no need for a bull from your stall, Nor male goats from your pens.
10 For every animal of the forest is mine, And the cattle on a thousand hills.
11 I know all the birds of the mountains. The wild animals of the field are mine.
12 If I were hungry, I would not tell you, For the world is mine, and all that is in it.
13 Will I eat the flesh of bulls, Or drink the blood of goats?
