Psalm 16:4Catholic Public Domain VersionTherefore, may my mouth not speak the works of men. I have kept to difficult ways because of the words of your lips. 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.
