 ⇔ And sweet cane from a distant land?
 ⇔ I accept not your burnt-offerings,
 ⇔ Your sacrifice pleaseth Me not.

 ⇔ and when you offer to me sweet-smelling anointing oil that came from far away,
 ⇔ I will not [RHQ] be pleased with your sacrifices.
 ⇔ I will not accept the sacrifices that are completely burned on the altar;
 ⇔ I am not pleased with any of your sacrifices.
