My hand made all these things,
and so they all came into being.
This is the Lord’s declaration.
I will look favorably on this kind of person:
one who is humble,(A) submissive[a] in spirit,(B)
and trembles at my word.
One person slaughters an ox, another kills a person;
one person sacrifices a lamb, another breaks a dog’s neck;
one person offers a grain offering, another offers pig’s blood;
one person offers incense, another praises an idol—
all these have chosen their ways
and delight in their abhorrent practices.(C)
So I will choose their punishment,
and I will bring on them what they dread
because I called and no one answered;
I spoke and they did not listen;
they did what was evil in my sight
and chose what I did not delight in.(D)
You who tremble at his word,(E)
hear the word of the Lord:(F)
“Your brothers who hate and exclude you
for my name’s sake have said,(G)
‘Let the Lord be glorified
so that we can see your joy!’
But they will be put to shame.”(H)
