Ps.40.6

Sacrifice and offering thou didst not desire; mine ears hast thou opened: burnt offering and sin offering hast thou not required.

Ps.40.6

Doing something for you, bringing something to you--that's not what you're after. Being religious, acting pious--that's not what you're asking for. You've opened my ears so I can listen.

Ps.40.6

Sacrifice and offering You did not desire; My ears You have opened. Burnt offering and sin offering You did not require.

Ps.40.6

You take no delight in sacrifices or offerings. Now that you have made me listen, I finally understand--you don't require burnt offerings or sin offerings.
