“Sacrifice and offering thou hast no delight in; Mine ears hast thou opened: Burnt-offering and sin-offering hast thou not required. ”

And he has put a new song in my mouth, even praise to our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the LORD.
Blessed is that man that makes the LORD his trust, and respects not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.
Many, O LORD my God, are your wonderful works which you have done, and your thoughts which are to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in order to you: if I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered.
Sacrifice and offering you did not desire; my ears have you opened: burnt offering and sin offering have you not required.
Then said I, See, I come: in the volume of the book it is written of me,
I delight to do your will, O my God: yes, your law is within my heart.
I have preached righteousness in the great congregation: see, I have not refrained my lips, O LORD, you know.
