5 "Bring my faithful to me,those who made a covenant with me by sacrifice."
6 The skies proclaim his righteousnessbecause God himself is the judge. Selah
7 "Listen, my people, I will now speak;Israel, I will now testify against you.I am God—your God!
8 I’m not punishing you for your sacrificesor for your entirely burned offerings,which are always before me.
9 I won’t accept bulls from your houseor goats from your corrals
10 because every forest animal already belongs to me,as do the cattle on a thousand hills.
11 I know every mountain bird;even the insects in the fields are mine.
