7Hear, O my people, and I will speak; O Israel, and I will testify unto thee: I am God, even thy God.
8I will not reprove thee for thy sacrifices; And thy burnt-offerings are continually before me.
9I will take no bullock out of thy house, Nor he-goats out of thy folds.
10For every beast of the forest is mine, And the cattle upon a thousand hills.
11I know all the birds of the mountains; And the wild beasts of the field are mine.
12If I were hungry, I would not tell thee; For the world is mine, and the fulness thereof.
13Will I eat the flesh of bulls, Or drink the blood of goats?
14Offer unto God the sacrifice of thanksgiving; And pay thy vows unto the Most High;
