2 · This verse (above)
3One who slaughters the ox, one who strikes a man; one who sacrifices the lamb, one who breaks the neck of a dog; one who presents an offering, the blood of a pig; one who makes a memorial of frankincense, one who blesses wickedness. They too have chosen their ways, and in their detestable things their soul delights.
