In other versions

ESVEnglish Standard Version

Not for your sacrifices do I rebuke you;

your burnt offerings are continually before me.

I will not accept a bull from your house

or goats from your folds.

For every beast of the forest is mine,

the cattle on a thousand hills.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

I bring no charges against you concerning your sacrifices

or concerning your burnt offerings, which are ever before me.

I have no need of a bull from your stall

or of goats from your pens,

for every animal of the forest is mine,

and the cattle on a thousand hills.

CSBChristian Standard Bible

I do not rebuke you for your sacrifices

or for your burnt offerings,

which are continually before me.

I will not take a bull from your household

or male goats from your pens,

for every animal of the forest is mine,

the cattle on a thousand hills.

NLTNew Living Translation

I have no complaint about your sacrifices

or the burnt offerings you constantly offer.

But I do not need the bulls from your barns

or the goats from your pens.

For all the animals of the forest are mine,

and I own the cattle on a thousand hills.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

It is not concerning a lack of your sacrifices that I rebuke you,

and your burnt offerings are before me continually.

I will not take from your house a bull

or from your stalls a he-goat,

because every animal of the forest is mine,

the cattle on a thousand hills.

KJV 1900King James Version

I will not reprove thee for thy sacrifices

Or thy burnt offerings, to have been continually before me.

I will take no bullock out of thy house,

Nor he goats out of thy folds.

For every beast of the forest is mine,

And the cattle upon a thousand hills.
