Verse 3
Isaiah 66:3
English Revised Version
3
He that killeth an ox is as he that slayeth a man; he that sacrificeth a lamb, as he that breaketh a dog’s neck; he that offereth an oblation, as he that offereth swine’s blood; he that burneth frankincense, as he that blesseth an idol: yea, they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delighteth in their abominations;

שׁוֹחֵ֨ט הַ/שּׁ֜וֹר מַכֵּה אִ֗ישׁ זוֹבֵ֤חַ הַ/שֶּׂה֙ עֹ֣רֵֽף כֶּ֔לֶב מַעֲלֵ֤ה מִנְחָה֙ דַּם חֲזִ֔יר מַזְכִּ֥יר לְבֹנָ֖ה מְבָ֣רֵֽךְ אָ֑וֶן גַּם הֵ֗מָּה בָּֽחֲרוּ֙ בְּ/דַרְכֵי/הֶ֔ם וּ/בְ/שִׁקּוּצֵי/הֶ֖ם נַפְשָׁ֥/ם חָפֵֽצָה
English Translation
The slaughterer of the ox strikes a person; the one who sacrifices the sheep severs the neck; the one who brings a meal offering offers blood; the pig's blood recalls the idol; the one who blesses is iniquity; also, they have chosen in their ways and in their abominations their souls desire.
