Listen my people, and I will speak :
O Israel, I am God your God, and I will give my testimony.
It is not for your sacrifices that I reprove you :
for your burnt-offerings are always before me.
I will take no bull from your farms :
or he-goat from your pens.
For all the beasts of the forest belong to me :
and so do the cattle upon the mountains.
I know all the birds of the air :
and the grasshoppers of the field are in my sight.
If I were hungry, I would not tell you :
for the whole world is mine, and all that is in it.
Do I eat the flesh of bulls :
or drink the blood of goats?
Offer to God a sacrifice of thanksgiving :
and pay your vows to the Most High.
Call upon me in the day of trouble :
I will bring you out, and you shall glorify me.
