Offered, etc

Then Noah built an altar to the Lord, and took of every clean animal and of every clean bird and offered burnt offerings on the altar.

The angel of the Lord said to Manoah, “Though you detain me, I will not eat your food, but if you prepare a burnt offering, then offer it to the Lord.” For Manoah did not know that he was the angel of the Lord.

Naaman said, “If not, please let your servant at least be given two mules’ load of earth; for your servant will no longer offer burnt offering nor will he sacrifice to other gods, but to the Lord.

Let them also offer sacrifices of thanksgiving,
And tell of His works with joyful singing.

“Then you will see and be radiant,
And your heart will thrill and rejoice;
Because the abundance of the sea will be turned to you,
The wealth of the nations will come to you.

Made

Then Jacob made a vow, saying, “If God will be with me and will keep me on this journey that I take, and will give me

food to eat and garments to wear,

“Offer to God a sacrifice of thanksgiving
And pay your vows to the Most High;

I shall come into Your house with burnt offerings;
I shall pay You my vows,

I shall pay my vows to the Lord,
Oh may it be in the presence of all His people.

When you make a vow to God, do not be late in paying it; for He takes no delight in fools. Pay what you vow!

General references
