ULT He who slaughters an ox strikes down a man;
⇔ he who sacrifices a lamb breaks the neck of a dog;
 ⇔ he who brings up a grain offering offers the blood of a pig;
⇔ he who offers a memorial of incense blesses wickedness.
 ⇔ They, too, have chosen their ways,
⇔ and in their abominations their spirit delights.

UST You have chosen to continually do the things that you want to do:
 ⇔ some of you slaughter oxen to sacrifice them to me,
⇔ but you also bring human sacrifices to your idols!
 ⇔ You sacrifice lambs to me,
⇔ but you kill dogs to offer them to your gods.
 ⇔ You offer grain to me,
⇔ but you also bring pigs’ blood to your idols.
 ⇔ You burn incense to me,
⇔ but you also praise your idols.
 ⇔ You delight to do those disgusting things.


BSB  ⇔ Whoever slaughters an ox is like one who slays a man;
⇔ whoever sacrifices a lamb is like one who breaks a dog’s neck;
 ⇔ whoever presents a grain offering is like one who offers pig’s blood;
⇔ whoever offers frankincense is like one who blesses an idol.
 ⇔ Indeed, they have chosen their own ways
⇔ and delighted in their abominations.

OEB  ⇔ Oxen they kill forsooth –
⇔ but men they also slay;
 ⇔ and sheep they sacrifice –
⇔ but dogs they also strangle:
 ⇔ they offer their oblations –
⇔ but also the blood of swine;
 ⇔ they bring their memorial incense,
⇔ but they also bless the idol.
 ⇔ Such are the ways they have chosen,
⇔ foul rites are the joy of their soul;

 ⇔ the one who sacrifices a lamb also breaks a dog’s neck;
 ⇔ the one who presents an offering includes pig’s blood with it;
 ⇔ the one who offers incense also praises an idol.
 ⇔ They have decided to behave this way;
 ⇔ they enjoy these disgusting practices.

LSV Whoever slaughters the ox strikes a man,
Whoever sacrifices the lamb beheads a dog,
Whoever is bringing up a present—The blood of a sow,
Whoever is making mention of frankincense,
Is blessing iniquity. Indeed, they have fixed on their own ways,
And their soul has delighted in their abominations.

FBV When someone sacrifices a bull it's like human sacrifice, and when someone sacrifices a lamb, it's like breaking the neck of a dog.[fn] When they present a grain offering it's like presenting pig's blood, and when they burn incense it's like worshiping an idol. Since they have chosen to act like this and to love such disgusting things,


66:3 A dog was considered both unclean and a low form of animal life.

T4T You have enjoyed continually doing the things that you want to do:
 ⇔ Some of you slaughter oxen to sacrifice them to me,

TSNTyndale Study Notes:

66:3 delighting in their detestable sins: Literally delighting in abominations, which refers to pagan worship practices.
• sacrifice a bull . . . blessed an idol: Wicked people brought sacrifices as prescribed by the law, but their sin rendered those sacrifices equivalent to pagan offerings (see 1:11-17).
