Isaiah 66:3

King James 3 - The Literal Traslation

He who slaughters an ox is as if he struck a man; he who sacrifices a lamb is as if he broke a dog’s neck; he who offers a present is as if it were swine’s blood; he making mention of incense is as if he blessed iniquity. Yea, they have chosen their way, and their soul delights in their detestable idols.
