# you have not required burnt offerings or sin offerings
This is an exaggeration to show that these things were not the most important to God. Alternate translation: "animals burned on the altar and other offerings for our sins are not what you require most" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-hyperbole]])
