1 Samuel 13:9Catholic Public Domain VersionTherefore, Saul said, "Bring me the holocaust and the peace offerings." And he offered the holocaust. See the chapter |
Whoever immolates an ox, it is as if he slaughters a man. Whoever sacrifices a sheep, it is as if he is smashing the head of a dog. Whoever offers an oblation, it is as if he is offering swine's blood. Whoever makes remembrance with incense, it is as if he is blessing an idol. All these things, they have chosen according to their own ways, and their soul has taken delight in their own abominations.
