Proverbs 21:27

Proverbs Of Solomon

²⁶ All day long he craves and craves, but the righteous gives and does not hold back. ²⁷ The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination,
How much more when he brings it with evil intent!
²⁸ A false witness will perish, but the word of a man who hears will endure.

To the Lord

O God

Proverbs 15:8

The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD, but the prayer of the upright is acceptable to him.

Isaiah 66:3

"He who slaughters an ox is like one who kills a man; he who sacrifices a lamb, like one who breaks a dog's neck; he who presents a grain offering, like one who offers pig's blood; he who makes a memorial offering of frankincense, like one who blesses an idol. These have chosen their own ways, and their soul delights in their abominations;

Jeremiah 6:20

What use to me is frankincense that comes from Sheba, or sweet cane from a distant land? Your burnt offerings are not acceptable, nor your sacrifices pleasing to me.

But the people took of the spoil, sheep and oxen, the best of the things devoted to destruction, to sacrifice to the LORD your God in Gilgal."

Not for your sacrifices do I rebuke you; your burnt offerings are continually before me.

Proverbs 28:9

If one turns away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer is an abomination.

Isaiah 1:11-16

"What to me is the multitude of your sacrifices? says the LORD; I have had enough of burnt offerings of rams and the fat of well-fed beasts; I do not delight in the blood of bulls, or of lambs, or of goats.

Jeremiah 7:11-12

Has this house, which is called by my name, become a den of robbers in your eyes? Behold, I myself have seen it, declares the LORD.

"I hate, I despise your feasts, and I take no delight in your solemn assemblies.
