He also struck down Nob, the city of the priests, with the sword ​— ​both men and women, infants and nursing babies, oxen, donkeys, and sheep.

When those carrying the ark of the LORD advanced six steps, he sacrificed an ox and a fattened calf.

“He has lavishly sacrificed oxen, fattened cattle, and sheep. He invited all the king’s sons, the priest Abiathar, and Joab the commander of the army, but he did not invite your servant Solomon.

Each[fn] day, one ox, six choice sheep, and some fowl were prepared for me. An abundance of all kinds of wine was provided every ten days. But I didn’t demand the food allotted to the governor, because the burden on the people was so heavy.

Does a wild donkey bray over fresh grass

or an ox low over its fodder?

Their bulls breed without fail;

their cows calve and do not miscarry.

They drive away the donkeys owned by the fatherless

and take the widow’s ox as collateral.

That will please the LORD more than an ox,

more than a bull with horns and hooves.

They exchanged their glory[fn][fn]

for the image of a grass-eating ox.

He follows her impulsively

like an ox going to the slaughter,

like a deer bounding toward a trap[fn]

Where there are no oxen, the feeding trough is empty,[fn]

but an abundant harvest comes through the strength of an ox.

Better a meal of vegetables where there is love

than a fattened ox with hatred.

“The ox knows its owner,

and the donkey its master’s feeding trough,

but Israel does not know;

my people do not understand.”

You will not go to all the hills

that were once tilled with a hoe,

for fear of the thorns and briers.

Those hills will be places for oxen to graze

and for sheep to trample.

You will be happy as you sow seed

beside abundant water,

and as you let oxen and donkeys range freely.

One person slaughters an ox, another kills a person;

one person sacrifices a lamb, another breaks a dog’s neck;

one person offers a grain offering, another offers pig’s blood;

one person offers incense, another praises an idol —

all these have chosen their ways

and delight in their abhorrent practices.

Their faces looked something like the face of a human, and each of the four had the face of a lion on the right, the face of an ox on the left, and the face of an eagle.

Since Gilead is full of evil,

they will certainly come to nothing.

They sacrifice bulls in Gilgal;

even their altars will be like piles of rocks

on the furrows of a field.
