offered by wicked people.
Even more,
He hates offerings done with bad intentions.” (Source: Newari Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: “The LORD detests the offerings of the wicked, especially if they offer it with bad/evil motive.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)

but he detests it even more when they think that they will escape being punished for their evil deeds because of the sacrifices that they bring.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
