Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / hyperbole

(Some words not found in UHB: many you(ms)_have_done/made you(ms) YHWH God,my wonders,your and,thoughts,your toward,us not compare with,you proclaim and,tell numerous too_~_to,count )
This is an exaggeration to express that other things are much more important to God. Alternate translation: “Sacrifices and other offerings are not the things that delight you most”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
you have opened my ears
(Some words not found in UHB: many you(ms)_have_done/made you(ms) YHWH God,my wonders,your and,thoughts,your toward,us not compare with,you proclaim and,tell numerous too_~_to,count )
Here “ears” refers to the ability to hear. Alternate translation: “you have enabled me to hear your commands”
