“ I hate, I despise your religious festivals; your assemblies are a stench to me.

The Lord says,“ I hate your holy feasts. I can’t stand them. Your gatherings stink.

“ I hate, I despise your feasts, and I take no delight in your solemn assemblies.

“ I hate all your show and pretense— the hypocrisy of your religious festivals and solemn assemblies.

I hate, I despise, your feasts! I can’t stand the stench of your solemn assemblies.

“ I hate, I reject your festivals, Nor do I delight in your festive assemblies.

“ I hate, I despise your feast days, And I do not savor your sacred assemblies.

I hate, I despise your feasts, and I will take no delight in your solemn assemblies.

I hate, I despise your feasts! I can’t stand the stench of your solemn assemblies.

I hate, I despise your feast days, and I will not smell in your solemn assemblies.

“ I absolutely despise your festivals! I get no pleasure from your religious assemblies!

I hate, I despise your feasts, and I can’t stand your solemn assemblies.

I will turn your cities into ruins and lay waste your sanctuaries, and I will take no delight in the pleasing aroma of your offerings. (niv)

What do I care about incense from Sheba or sweet calamus from a distant land? Your burnt offerings are not acceptable; your sacrifices do not please me.” (niv)

“ The multitude of your sacrifices— what are they to me?” says the Lord.“ I have more than enough of burnt offerings, of rams and the fat of fattened animals; I have no pleasure in the blood of bulls and lambs and goats.When you come to appear before me, who has asked this of you, this trampling of my courts?Stop bringing meaningless offerings! Your incense is detestable to me. New Moons, Sabbaths and convocations— I cannot bear your worthless assemblies.Your New Moon feasts and your appointed festivals I hate with all my being. They have become a burden to me; I am weary of bearing them.When you spread out your hands in prayer, I hide my eyes from you; even when you offer many prayers, I am not listening. Your hands are full of blood!Wash and make yourselves clean. Take your evil deeds out of my sight; stop doing wrong. (niv)

But whoever sacrifices a bull is like one who kills a person, and whoever offers a lamb is like one who breaks a dog’s neck; whoever makes a grain offering is like one who presents pig’s blood, and whoever burns memorial incense is like one who worships an idol. They have chosen their own ways, and they delight in their abominations; (niv)

Though they offer sacrifices as gifts to me, and though they eat the meat, the Lord is not pleased with them. Now he will remember their wickedness and punish their sins: They will return to Egypt. (niv)

If anyone turns a deaf ear to my instruction, even their prayers are detestable. (niv)

The sacrifice of the wicked is detestable— how much more so when brought with evil intent! (niv)

The Lord detests the sacrifice of the wicked, but the prayer of the upright pleases him. (niv)

“ Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You shut the door of the kingdom of heaven in people’s faces. You yourselves do not enter, nor will you let those enter who are trying to. (niv)

The Lord smelled the pleasing aroma and said in his heart:“ Never again will I curse the ground because of humans, even though every inclination of the human heart is evil from childhood. And never again will I destroy all living creatures, as I have done. (niv)

and walk in the way of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God. (niv)

I have received full payment and have more than enough. I am amply supplied, now that I have received from Epaphroditus the gifts you sent. They are a fragrant offering, an acceptable sacrifice, pleasing to God. (niv)

“‘ This is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: Go ahead, add your burnt offerings to your other sacrifices and eat the meat yourselves!For when I brought your ancestors out of Egypt and spoke to them, I did not just give them commands about burnt offerings and sacrifices,but I gave them this command: Obey me, and I will be your God and you will be my people. Walk in obedience to all I command you, that it may go well with you. (niv)
