Isaiah 40:16

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

And Lebanon is not sufficient to burn, nor the beasts thereof sufficient for a burnt offering.

Sacrifice and oblation thou didst not desire: ears hast thou prepared me. Burnt-offering and sin-offering hast thou not demanded;

For every beast of the forest is mine, the cattle upon a thousand hills;

Wherewith shall I come before Jehovah, bow myself before the high God? Shall I come before him with burnt-offerings, with calves of a year old?

Wherefore coming into the world he says, Sacrifice and offering thou willedst not; but thou hast prepared me a body.
