6Sacrifice and offering you did not desire, but my ears you have pierced , ; burnt offerings and sin offerings you did not require.


In Context

3 He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see and fear and put their trust in the Lord .

4 Blessed is the man who makes the Lord his trust, who does not look to the proud, to those who turn aside to false gods.

5 Many, O Lord my God, are the wonders you have done. The things you planned for us no one can recount to you; were I to speak and tell of them, they would be too many to declare.

6 Sacrifice and offering you did not desire, but my ears you have pierced , ; burnt offerings and sin offerings you did not require.

7 Then I said, "Here I am, I have come- it is written about me in the scroll.

8 I desire to do your will, O my God; your law is within my heart."
