Jeremiah 7:21-26 - Obedience Over Sacrifice
21 Thus said Jehovah of armies, God of Israel; Add your burnt-offerings upon your sacrifices and eat flesh. 22 for I spake not to your fathers, and I commanded them not in the day of bringing them forth out of the land of Egypt, concerning my word of burnt-offering and sacrifice: 23 But this word I commanded them, saying, Hear to my voice, and I was to you for God, and in shall be to me for a people: and go in all the ways which I shall command you, so that it shall be well to you. 24 And they heard not and inclined not their ear, and they went in the counsels in the stubbornness of their evil heart, and they shall be for behind and not before. 25 From the day that your fathers came forth out of the land of Egypt even to this day, and I will send to you all my servants the prophets, in the day rising early and sending: 26 And they heard not to me and they inclined not their ear, and they will harden their neck: they did evil above their fathers.
