Sacrifice and offering you did not desire -- but my ears you have opened -- burnt offerings and sin offerings you did not require. Then I said, "Here am I, I have come -- it is written about me in the scroll, I desire to do your will God; your law is within my heart."
- Psalm 40:6-8
Therefore, when Christ came into the world, he said: "Sacrifice and offering you did not desire, but a body you prepared for me; with burnt offerings and sin offerings you were not pleased." Then I said, "Here am I -- it is written about me in the scroll -- I have come to do you will, God." First he said, "Sacrifices and offerings, burnt offerings and sin offerings you did not desire, nor were you pleased with them" -- though there were offered in accordance with the law. Then he said, "Here am I, I have come to do your will." He sets aside the first to establish the second. And by that will, we have been made holy through the sacrifice of the body of Jesus once for all.
- Hebrews 10:5-10
