1:11 “Of what importance to me are your many sacrifices?” 1
says the Lord.
“I am stuffed with 2 burnt sacrifices
of rams and the fat from steers.
The blood of bulls, lambs, and goats
I do not want. 3
1:15 When you spread out your hands in prayer,
I look the other way; 4
when you offer your many prayers,
I do not listen,
because your hands are covered with blood. 5
