New International Version (NIV)

13Though they offer sacrifices as gifts to me,

and though they eat the meat,

the Lord is not pleased with them.

Now he will remember their wickedness

and punish their sins:

They will return to Egypt.

13As for My sacrificial gifts,

They sacrifice the flesh and eat it,

But the Lord has taken no delight in them.

Now He will remember their guilt,

And punish them for their sins;

They will return to Egypt.

13As for My sacrificial gifts,

They sacrifice the flesh and eat it,

But the Lord has taken no delight in them.

Now He will remember their iniquity,

And punish them for their sins;

They will return to Egypt.

13As for My sacrificial offerings,

They sacrifice the meat [as a mere formality] and eat it,

But the Lord is not pleased with them and does not accept them.

Now He will remember and take into account their wickedness and guilt,

And punish them for their sins.

They will return [in captivity] to [another] Egypt [that is, Assyria]. [Deut 28:68]

13Though they offer sacrifices as gifts to Me,

and though they eat the meat,

the Lord does not accept them.

Now He will remember their iniquity and punish their sins:

They will return to Egypt.

They eat the meat of the animals they bring.

But the Lord is not pleased with any of this.

He will remember the evil things they have done.

He will punish them for their sins.
